Melody Dean

I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And when I laid my head down on her heart
 It beated out your name
 And so I had to listen to her heartbeat
 Several hundred times
 And she was very nice about it
 Held my hand and didn't mind
 I never put my foot in the same river twice
 I don't like getting wet
 You take the good
 You take the bad
 You take it all
 And that is all you get, oh
 The fact is you would rather I be lonely
 In a bathtub with a book, oh
 The fact is you would rather I sat pining
 On our pictures from New York
 New York, New York, New York
 But I get torn to pieces
 For the stupidest reasons
 All I want's to love the one I'm with
 Just like the song says
 I don't like picking sides
 I don't like sticking
 My cherona in a box
 I like to spread her out on different crackers, yeah
 I like the way she looks
 And when I go to bed at night
 With Melody undressing in my head
 To get to sleep
 You know that I would rather be undressing you instead
 Instead, instead, instead
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
 I never cross the continental divide
 Without thinking about you
 I am a tree that's carved up with her name
 She is a warrior tattoo
 And the fact is you're selective
 About what you can remember for a start, oh
 The fact is you're just jealous as all get out
 We can do it in the dark
 The dark, the dark, the dark
 But I get torn to pieces for the stupidest reasons
 All I want's to love the one I'm with
 Like Stephen Stills says
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
 I never met a lady
 Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
 And even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
 You know that it is you I love
 And you I want to get me off
 But you can only do that when you're here
 And right now you are not
