Alright For An Hour — текст песни (Rod Stewart)

(Rod Stewart, Jessie Ed Davis, 1975/76)

Oh, didn`t I mess around like ev`rybody did?
I said, Woman, you`re foolin` around with a man that just don`t fit.
I said, I`d better get along before I get right under your skin.
Remember the song, wasn`t it fun, `cause it was just one of those things.

But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.

I said goodbye to money, I don`t owe no alimony.
I paid my dues and payroll cues, gonna leave it all up to you.
I`ll take my dog and my car, the best friends I`ve found so far,
and I`ll keep goin` with the mornin` sun, singin` the same old song.

But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.

Well I guess you needed somebody to open each and ev`ry door
With a large amount in the Swiss account to give you thrills
and nothing more.
But my Volkswagen is hardly a custom built Ferarri.
You want firstclass but I pump gas, so I`ll get on out of your way.

But it was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.
It was alright for an hour; it was alright for a day.
But it did not last, it did not last till the weekend,
and I packed my bags and moved right away.
