String Of Pearls — текст песни (Jimmie`s Chicken Shack)

she want a string of pearls
all i got her was a necklace
made of flowers from the trash can
she wanna make me pay for it
yeah while i`m at i t guess i`ll take another bath man

and the records out
holding steady gaining on last place
and in a moment`s notice
we`ll be ready for the next new phase
another stupid craze

she want a string of pearls
all i got her was a necklace
made of flowers from the trash can
she`s gonna make me pay for it
i start to sing and cry and then it makes me laugh man

yeah we`ve all got doubts
might not be winning but still in the race
and in a moment`s notice
we`ll be ready for her next new face
it might be hard to sell
still never giving in
have i given...so deep...oh..well

will you give it all to me when you`re dead
you can keep the scent on my pillow
to settle your broken heart in head

will you think of me when you die
holding steady
moment`s notice
again she left with my heart in hand

she says she hates me
yeah she`s lied before
again it`s time to play me
yeah it just adds up
that same sad melodic score

i wrote another one
does this one count
and did it cost as much as all the other ones
so much more..

she want a string of pearls
all i got her was a necklace
made of flowers from the trash can
she wanna make me pay for it
yeah while i`m at i t guess i`ll take another bath man

yeah the record`s out
holding steady gaining on last place
and in a moments notice
we`ll be ready for her next new face
so i state my case

would you want a string of pearls
`cause all i got you was a necklace
made of flowers from a trash can
and she want a string of pearls
ain`t that enough, ma`am?
i think it`s worth so much more
