The Balltrap

Lyrics

Well, my brother said he saw you in a downtown bar
 With a price on your head and a black man on your arm
 C'mon sister, I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
 I'd rather see you dead with a rope 'round your neck
 Or see you paralyzed in both your thighs
 C'mon honey, you got me crawling down on my knees
 If you say it's all over, I'll pack up and go
 But this time tomorrow you'll be screamin' on the phone
 Come back baby and let's get naked tonight
 Well, I can't say yes and I can't say no
 My heart wants to love you but my soul says go
 C'mon sugar why don't you let your man off the hook?
 You got me in a balltrap
 Lord, I'm eating outta your hands
 You got me in a balltrap
 Hung up on a one night stand
 You got me in a balltrap
 Strung out on a midnight tram
 Well, the first time I had you up on ol' Park Lane
 You didn't know my name even when I came
 As I recall you let me walk home in the rain
 You say I'm cute but tell the truth
 It's my body you want with the red hot juice
 C'mon honey, let's call the whole thing off
 You got me in a balltrap
 Lord, I'm eating outta your hands
 You got me in a balltrap
 Hung up on a one night stand, aw
 You got me in a balltrap
 Strung out on a midnight tram, oh yeah, aw
 Ooh, alright, wait a minute
 My mama don't like you and I ain't surprised
 You got poison lips, you got amphetamine eyes
 She keeps on saying, "Why don't you find a nice country girl?"
 But ma I ain't never been in love before, I can't sleep or eat all week
 Friday night I'll be alright, on the midnight trampoline, aw
 It's a balltrap
 Lord, I'm eating outta your hands
 You got me in a balltrap
 Hung up on a one night stand
 You got me in a balltrap
 Strung out on a midnight tram,, aw
 C'mon sister, aw, alright
 You got me in a balltrap
 Hung up on a midnight tram
 , yeah
