You dare to tell me what to do
You have the lot of nerve
Watch your mouth or you might get
The dentist you deserveYou're leaving soon, you're awful doom
Example to us all
You be so far back you won't
Hear the hound-dogs callGo, go, whaddya know?
I know what the deal is
You might try to cop a feel
And I know what a feel isYou go out, you go down
Some might think it's funny
Prostitute, destitute
Love can't buy you moneyDon't you know the way is slow
And you've run out of time?
Watch your feet or you might fall
And it's been quite a climbBreaks my heart to say good-bye
But that's the way it goes
Don't you see the hanging tree?
Get up on your toesGo, go, whaddya know?
I know what the deal is
You might try to cop a feel
And I know what a feel isYou go out, you go down
Some might think it's funny
Prostitute, destitute
Love can't buy you moneyWell, here we are among the stars
Dizzy from the rush
We can't see your face no more
Behind that burning bushYour Bible hits the floor as we
Exchange our fond good-byes
Turned around and falling down
Funny how time fliesGo, go, whaddya know?
I know what the deal is
I might try to cop a feel
And you know what a feel isYou go out, you go down
Some might think it's funny
Prostitute, destitute
Love can't buy you money
