Get a Leg Up Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Don't look at me, don't touch me
Keep your mind straight ahead
Don't get no funny ideas about me
You'll wish that you were deadThat's what I'm thinking she must be thinking
The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night
She gives me a look from the corner of her eye
I said, "Boy, keep acting right"How surprised was I
When she leaned over and whispered in my earGet a leg up, get a leg over boy
Get a leg up, what's the matter
Are you shy, shy, shy?I'm pretty good with first impressions

But sometimes I'm not always right
I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road
To see what she had in mindWant me to spend the night
Hey lover boy you know I will
And my best girlfriend lived down the road
Together we will thrill yaI'm thinking to myself
I could be lucky Pierre tonightIf I could get a leg up
If I could get a leg over boy
You know I ain't that handsome
But you know I ain't shy, shy, shyAh goddamn babyRest of the night went on and on
And the moral to this song
Don't go making hasty judgments
Because sometimes they could be wrongNothing wrong with a good time
Just keep yourself protected, make a list
You can bet your life that the women don't know
The little girls are acting like this, yeahSo the next time a young one moves up
And she whispers in your earGet a leg up
Get a leg over boy
Get a leg up
Now don't you be shy, shy, shyNow get a leg up
Get a leg over boy
You know I ain't that handsome
But you know I ain't shy, shy, shyGet a leg up
Get a leg over boy
Get a leg up
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
