Fix it up Lyrics by Pete Bernhard

Things I Left Behind

0

Some see a disaster, you see an opportunity
A little rough around the edges, but still something you can keep
A precious little treasure made of rhinestones and scrap
For the protection of the public, now the last guy burned the map
She's your lady, she just wanders out at night
Oh you wake up in the morning and your wallet's feeling light
But ah she's your angel, yeah she's a pearl
You couldn't give her up for the whole damn world
Well now, poor little man, you just love your fix upper girl

Bottom of the barrel is wherе she does her fishin' thеse days
All them drugs make it hard now for him to get away
He's not sneakin' off, cause he's too busy noddin' out
Oh, it's so much easier to keep track of him that way, anyhow
Lord, he's going to get better, everyone knows that, of course
He's doin' the best he can now with that habit to support
But oh, poor little lady, now, you'll never understand
Why you can't get up from under with that anchor in your hand
Well now, poor little baby, you just love your fix upper man
(No one knows why though)

Well, she's an artist so you just wouldn't understand
Why she doesn't seem to give ya now, a good god damn
She wants to hold the word down in the palm of her hand
You ain't the answer to the riddle
You just a small part of the plan
She won't tell you what you did wrong
She won't tell you what you did right
You're always paranoid, now so you never sleep at night
But oh, she's your angel, yeah she's a pearl
You couldn't give her up for the whole damn world
Well now, poor little man, you just love your fix upper girl

He was captain of the football team and head of his class
All them dreams done drifted to that distant past
Singing lounge songs under them disco lights
He's like a walking pharmacy now, but his hair looks just right
Got a friend who helps him out with money now, but no one knows why
He's always got that lost look in his one good eye
But oh, poor little lady now, you'll never understand
Why you can't get up from under with that anchor in your hand
Well now, poor little baby, you just love your fix upper
Poor little lady, you love your fix upper
Poor little lady, you love your fix upper man
