The Spider And The Fly

Sittin', thinkin', sinkin', drinkin'
Wonderin' what I'd do when I'm through tonight
Smokin', mopin', maybe just hopin'
Some little girl will pass on by
Don't want to be alone but I love my girl at home
I remember what she said

She said, "my, my, my, don't tell lies, keep fidelity in your head"
"My my my, don't tell lies, when you're done you should go to bed"
Don't even say hi, like a spider to a fly
Jump right ahead and you're dead

Sit up, fed up, low down, go 'round
Down to the bar at the place I'm at
Sittin', drinkin', superficially thinkin'
About the rinsed-out blonde on my left
Then I say, "hi", like a spider to a fly
Rememberin' what my little girl said, alright

(...)

She was common, flirty, she looked about thirty
I woulda' run away but I was on my own
She told me later she's a machine operator
She said she liked the way I held the microphone
I said "my, my" like a spider to a fly
Jump right ahead in my web, yeah
