Waltzing round the room tonight
In someone else`s clothes.
You`re always coming out of things
Smelling like a rose.
You hang your head and your heart is filled with so much misery...
You`d be happy as you could be
If you belonged to me.
You say let`s go to the rodeo
And see some cowboy fall.
Sometimes it seems to me you`ve
Got no sympathy at all.
You keep on going on and on about how you`re so free...
You`d be happy as you could be
If you belonged to me.
It ain`t easy to get to you.
But there must be some kind of a way
If only two could look to you
For only one moment of each day.
You`re saying that you`re all washed up
Got nothing else to give.
Seems like you would`ve figured out
How long you have to live
You could feel like a baby again sitting on your daddy`s knee...
Oh how happy you could be
If you belonged to me.
(harmonica solo)
The guy your with is a ruthless pimp
Everybody knows
Every cent he takes from you
Goes straight up his nose.
You look so sad, you`re going so mad, any fool can see...
You`d be happy as you could be
If you belong to me.
