What a Way to Go

(B. David/J. Rushing)I met him in Seattle, he was gettin' down on a bottle

Telling lies in the Blue Moon Bar

His face was hard and travelled, and as the wine unravelled

I saw a man who could laugh about his scarsHe said, I got shanghaied in Vegas by a painted woman

I got hog-tied by a hustler in Ohio

I got derailed by a dancer down in Dallas

Oh Lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to goHe said a girl named Nancy, once tickled his fancy

And backed it up with a fifty dollar smile

He laughed when he remembered, the pain of sweet surrender

But heartaches never seemed to cramp his styleHe said, I got tongue-tied by a teacher in Tallahassee

I got french-fried by a waitress in Idaho

I got way-laid by a widow in Wyoming

Oh Lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to goHe said, I got shanghaied in Vegas by a painted woman

I got hog-tied by a hustler in Ohio

I got derailed by a dancer down in Dallas

Oh Lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go(c) Vogue music Inc./Bibo Music Publishing inc.
