Sweetheart Like You

 He's gone North, for a while
 They say that vanity got the best of him
 But he sure left here in style
 
 By the way, that's a cute hat
 And that smile's so hard to resist
 But what's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?

 You know, I once knew a woman who looked like you
 She wanted a whole man, not just a half
 She used to call me sweet daddy when I was only a child
 You kind of remind me of her when you laugh
 In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear
 It's done with a flick of the wrist

 You know a woman like you should be at home
 That's where you belong
 Taking care for somebody nice
 Who don't know how to do you wrong
 Just how much abuse will you be able to take?
 Well, there's no way to tell by that first kiss
 What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
 
 You know you can make a name for yourself
 You can hear them tires squeal
 You could be known as the most beautiful woman
 Who ever crawled across cut glass to make a deal.
 You know, news of you has come down the line
 Even before ya came in the door
 They say in your father's house, there's many a mansions
 Each one of them got a fireproof floor

 Got to be an important person to be in here, honey
 Got to have done some evil deed
 Got to have your own harem when you come in the door
 Got to play your harp until your lips bleed.
 They say that patriotism is the last refuge
 To which a scoundrel clings
 Steal a little and they throw you in jail
 Steal a lot and they make you king
 There's only one step down from here, baby
 It's called the land of permanent bliss
