Come Close to Me

Lyrics

I'll never let a girl get away again
 Ain't nobody come close to me
 To me, to me
 If she should try to run I would get a gun
 Come on honey, come close to me
 To me, to me
 There's a bridge on the river
 There's a bum in the alley
 But there's nobody wrapped in her arms
 From the stars in the sky
 To the place where I lie
 It's like everyone's under her charm
 So we drink in the kitchen
 And she's drunk on the sidewalk
 Where somebody's starting a fight
 But there's not much to say
 'Cause we've wasted the day
 And everyone's wasted tonight
 I'll never let a girl get away again
 Ain't nobody come close to me
 To me, to me
 If she should try to run I would get a gun
 Come on honey, come close to me
 To me, to me
 Well I know I'm good lookin'
 'Cause I swear on good cookin'
 My mom says I'm handsome and strong
 And she knows that she's pretty
 'Cause the sirens of the city
 They're singing a sad jealous song
 Upstairs the doors open
 Where the gun is still smokin'
 Though they lit every bit of evidence
 Save a silver spare rubber
 That your boy just discovered
 Makin' sorrow look like confidence
 I'll never let a girl get away again
 Ain't nobody come close to me
 To me, to me
 If she should try to run I would get a gun
 Come on honey, come close to me
 To me, to me
 Standing up is a struggle
 When there's juice from the jungle
 And I'm filling every cup to the brim
 And when John's in the background
 And puking his guts out
 You can hear them chant asshole at him
 On the porch she's with me
 Says her name's Bethany
 As her eyes pull me into a trance
 And she tells me to stay
 But she just walks away
 I'm a dog and I ain't got a chance
 I'll never let a girl get away again
 Ain't nobody come close to me
 To me, to me
 If she should try to run I would get a gun
 Come on honey, come close to me
 To me, to me
