I used to say
No man would ever strike me
And no man ever did
'Til I met you
Until I met you
Sweet you

Yeah, you had the charm
Charm enough to sweep me
Took me in you arms
So you'd satisfy and keep me
Too late I knew
That it was all and only about you
All about you
Sweet you

I was intoxicated by the child in you
I loved the satyr running wild in you
But I never met anyone who stunk like you
Who talked junk like you
Who fell in a funk like you
Or got half as goddamn drunk as you

I used to say
No man would ever cage me
And no man ever has
No, not even you
Oh no, not you
Sweet you
