Reckless Lyrics by Stray Cats

Rock Therapy

0

Well, I met you in the backroom
You had lipstick on your face
With your see-through backless frilly dress
You were every mom's disgrace
Well, I'd like to understand you
But I couldn't even if I tried
Like a charging bull in the face of death
I was fit to be tied

Well, come on when I call you, Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get a chance

I had a toothbrush in my pocket
You had a six inch homemade knife
You said you haven't slept in seven days
Well, I said, baby, where you been all my life
Well, if opposites attract, baby
Well, we're like night and day
I said look me up in a couple of years
When that heat sore goes away

Well, come on when I call you, Angeline, Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get the chance

Well, come on when I call you, Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get a chance

My name is reckless when I get a chance
