Sometimes A Great Notion

Never give an inch, that's what I say, son When it's too tough for everybody else it is just right for me Now, my lips are bleedin' from the selfish things that I've done And my heart, it lies at the bottom of the ocean Sometimes a great notion Wanted to make love to my girl in the backseat of my car So, I took her to the drive-in picture show So, I filled her up with lies and a strong love potion Now I'm sittin' here watchin' the movie alone Sometimes a great notion Sometimes the best laid plans have been known to go astray Then you bet, you better put your seatbelt on Just like your worst headache, well, a bad day don't go away And you hit the ground runnin' against your emotions Sometimes a great notion Sometimes a great notion
