The Spider And The Fly

Sittin', thinkin', sinkin', drinkin' Wonderin' what I'd do when I'm through tonight Smokin', mopin', maybe just hopin' Some little girl will pa*s on by I don't wanna be alone but I love my girl at home I remember what she said She said, "My, my, my don't tell lies Keep fidelity in your head My my my, don't tell lies, when you're done You should hit the bed Don't say hi, like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead and you're dead" Sit up, fed up, low down, go round Down to the bar at the place I'm at Sittin' drinkin', superficially thinkin' About the rinsed-out blonde on my left Then I said, "Hi, like a spider to a fly Remeberin' what my little girl said" She was fifty, fifty, she looked about thirty I would have run away but I was on my own She told me later, she was a machine operator She said, "I liked the way I held the microphone" And, and I said, "My, like the spider to the fly A jump right ahead in my web"
