On The Blues Express
I’m not like any other man you’ve ever met before
I won’t be loving you with my eye on the door
He was so sweet and he told me all these things
He said all the right words, even asked what I liked in rings
But by the time the moon made it up
I was pouring our whiskey in just one cup
This loving a man just makes a big mess
So tonight I’m On The Blues Express
Well it sure looks like my shiny knight just rode past
My Romeo and Prince Charming, no, they did not last
The days bring nothing but pretty promises
And I won’t forget last night’s delicious kisses
But by the time the moon made it up…
I’m thinking I might take a ride on down the track
It’s no use staying put when no one’s coming back
If I get to feeling lonely I’ll take me a trip back in time
Mmmm, we’re holding each other and I’m thinking he’s mine
But by the time the moon made it up…
So tonight I’m On The Blues Express
