The Angels Once Bitten Twice Shy song lyrics

Ian Hunter)

Well the times gettin' hard for you little girl

I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world

you don't remember when you got your last meal

and you forgot just how a woman feels

you didn't know what rock n' roll was

until you met a drummer on a greyhound bus

I got there in the nick of time

before he got his hands across your state line

well in the middle of the night

on the open road

and the heater don't work and it's oh-so cold

you're gettin' tired, you're lookin' kinda peaked

the music off the street, drive you off your feet

you didn't know how rock n' roll looked

until you caught your sister with a guy from the crew

half-way home in the parking lot

by the look in her eyes she was givin' what she got

Once bitten twice shy, babe

Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep

all the blood on my hand and my Les Paul heat

I can't leave you home cos you're runnin' around

my best friend told me you're the best trick in town

You didn't know that rock n' roll burned

so you bought a candle and you loved and you learned

you got the rhythm, you got the speed

mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet

Once bitten twice shy, babe

I didn't know ya got a rock n' roll record

until a saw your picture on another guy's jacket

you told me I was the only one

and look at you now, well it's dark as it's dumb

Once bitten twice shy, babe
