If I had my own way
You'd be with me here today
But I rarely have my own way
I guess that's why you're not here with me today

And the librarian said
"You can't buy no respect"
I said "hey, lady, what can you expect
When I'm lying on the floor"

You're a lovely lady but you don't wanna be
No girl of mine
Well the only thing you ever done for me
Was help me, help me, waste my time

And I saw you at the funeral
You were standing there like a temple
I said hi, how are you, hello

And I pulled up a casket and crawled in
And I pulled up a casket and crawled in
And I pulled up a casket and crawled in
And I pulled up a casket and crawled in
And I pulled up a casket and crawled in
