Ba Girl Lyrics by Joe Purdy

Eagle Rock Fire

0

People often tell me
That all my songs are sad
Lately I spend all my time
Alone and feeling bad
But they can rest assured
That I've seen good times too
But good times they don't sound as good
As the things that make me blue
Good times they don't rhyme as well
And happy songs don't always tell
The truth about the living hell
That a woman sometimes brings
I used to like watching hippie dance
'Til I traded mine in for a burning man
Chances are it wasn't meant to be
So i'll keep writing cowboy songs
And being me
There's laughing on the hillside
There's crying down below
There's a crook on every corner
And there's mercy on your soul
There's a woman that will love you
And there's a woman that will cheat
There's a loyal dog just waitin'
Alone on every street
So get a dog
Good times they don't rhyme as well
And happy songs don't always tell
The truth about the living hell
That a woman sometimes brings
I went over to her house to make amends
And found her jumping on the bed
With all my friends
Chances are it wasn't meant to be
Good times they don't rhyme as well
And happy songs don't always tell
The truth about the living hell
That a woman sometimes brings
The girl in Echo Park was cute
'Til she ran off with the blue man group
Chances are it wasn't meant to be
So I'll keep picking this here guitar and feeling mean
There's a bar girl in the window
She's staring back at me
She's still as a stubborn statue
She's fine as make believe
But she's filled with bad intentions
And her eyes are made of sin
She's taken fire and brimstone to the lives of many men
Stear clear
Good times they don't rhyme as well
And happy songs don't always tell
The truth about the living hell
That a woman sometimes brings
So take advice from me my friend
Just don't fall in love with a mannequin
Chances are it wasn't meant to be
Just keep stealing cowboy songs and feeling free
We'll just keep stealing cowboy songs and feeling free
