Del Water Gap - Skinny Girls Lyrics
(Verse)
Lord, don’t let me wake at night
Picturin' the hands that might be holdin' her
Though we’re far past burned
I left her for to grow up in
The burned out hole, the skeleton
Of our parents debt, that this city kept
(Short Chorus)
But please don’t let me think of that
Please don’t let me think of it
(Verse 2)
I’ve wrote songs for skinny girls
Who couldn’t bare to let me hurl
My soul to them
And stick to plans
U start with one and end with three
It’s all for fun until it’s bad to me
And I lose my grip, and I fall in it
(Chorus)
But please don’t let me think of that
Please don’t let me think of it
Please don’t let me think of that
Please don’t let me think of it
(Verse 3)
Carola told me on Lexington
'Baby, when you’re older u can have me then'
'I’ll still want u luv, when u lose ur touch'
'Smokin' reds, I had her on my back'
I think of then and I imagine that
I should have kissed
Those famous hips
I’d scream, 'Promise me this ain’t all for dead'
'Did I waste ur time, pullin' thread by thread?'
Yeah, that stuff is cash & u lose it fast
(Chorus)
(Verse)
