Shady Lady — текст песни (Uriah Heep)

Out from st. louis

I wasnt choosy

I just wanted to get

Back on the road

I hitched in cars

And worked in bars

Lookin for a place

To lay down my load



I met a lady, a shady lady

And someone told her

I was all on my own

She poured a beer

And said when Im finished here

Hang around cause

Im taking you home



Dont worry

Ill treat you all right

Dont worry

You can stay all night

I thought it was any easy ride

But I didnt know where

I was until I got inside



She said, ok sonny

Give me your money

And dont start any foolin around

I said what, I said what

Dont you think youre

Turning me upside down



She said, I dont care

Ive been everywhere

And Ive not been looking for you

But Ill take you in

And give you a spin

Youll know some tricks

By the time we get through



Shady lady

You want it all your own way

Shady lady

You wont let go of your prey

Shady lady

Eat me up and spit me out

But lets get started now

I know what youre talking about



Now in the morning

As the day was dawning

Shady asked me if

Id stay there awhile

I said stay, baby no way

But I couldnt keep myself

From a smile



I said now no bye-byes

Go in and dry your eyes

That aint fittin

For a lady like you

Why not be smart

And give your life another start

But take care now

Whatever you do



Shady lady

Im on my way

Shady lady

Well meet again one day

And dont worry cause when we do

Im gonna make sure

That there aint

Very much left of you
