Get A Leg Up by John Mellencamp
Artist: John Mellencamp
Album: Whenever We Wanted
Don´t look at me don´t touch me
Keep your mind straight ahead
Don´t get no funny ideas about we
Or you´ll wish you were dead
That´s what i am thinking she must be thinking
The girl i spent 53 bucks on last night
She give me a look from the corner of her eye
That says, "boy, keep acting right"
How surprised was i
When she leaned over and whispered in my ear
Chorus:
Get a leg up
Get a leg over boy
Get a leg up
What´s the matter
Are you shy, shy, shy?
I´m pretty good with first impressions
But sometimes i´m not always right
I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road
To see what she had in mind
Want me to spend the night
Hey lover boy you know i will
And my best girlfriend lives down the road
Together we will thrill ya
And i´m thinking to myself
I could be lucky pierre tonight
Chorus:
If i could get a leg up
If i could get a leg over boy
You know i ain´t that handsome
But you know i ain´t shy, shy, shy
The rest of the night we went on and on
And the moral to this song
Don´t go making hasty judgements
Because sometimes they could be wrong
Nothing wrong with a good time
Just keep yourself protected make a list
And you can bet your life that the women don´t know
The little girls are acting like this
So the next time a young one moves up
And she whispers in your ear
Chorus:
Get a leg up
Get a leg over boy
Get a leg up
What´s the matter
Now don´t you be shy, shy, shy?
Get a leg up
Get a leg over boy
Get a leg up
What´s the matter
Now don´t you be shy, shy, shy?
