She had sulky smile
She took her standard pose as she presented herself
She had sultry eyes
She made it perfectly plain that she was his for a priceBut he said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightShe wore hurt surprise
As she rechecked her make up to protect herself
Dropped her price and pride
She made it totally clear that she was his for a nightBut he said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightShe gave him her look
It would have worked on any other man around
He looked her up and down
She knew he couldn't decide if he should hold his groundBut he said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightShe turned, tossed her head
Unlike her opening move, her final exit line
He waited much too long
But by the time he got his courage up she was goneAnd he screamed, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightHe said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And I don't think I want you tonight
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightHe said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
And my bark is much worse than my bite
He said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
If you push me too far I just mightHe said, leave me alone, I'm a family man
Don't leave me alone 'cause I got to go hungry
