Everybody Knows Matilda - Duke Baxter

I went down to 42nd street

Thought I'd get a bite to eat

I saw a girl that I'd like to meet

You know she sure looked good

Told me that her heart was broken

Asked me what it was I smoking

All she had was an old bus token

Yes I would

She cried a tear

And said she was alone

And would I be so good

To accompany her home

Yeah I could yeah

But everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Ain't no life for a young girl

All alone in a great big world

Matilda

Took me to shack on the edge of town

All the shades were pulled and drawn

Nobody not a soul around

She smiled at me

Mixed drinks and I fixed my head

Drank it down made me feel like lead

When I asked her where was the bed

She said I'd see

She pulled me close

Now what was I to do

My head was spinning

As she said take off your shoes

And I agree yeah

But everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Ain't no life for a young girl

All alone in a great big world

Matilda

Heard a heavy knock upon the door

Scared me so bad I fell on the floor

Heard a voice that sounded sore

Said let me in

Matilda said her boyfriend had a gun

Sorry baby but you have to run

But I was gone before she was done

I left my skin

Flew out the window

As the door came tumbling down

Didn't even say goodbye

I was homeward bound

Just can't win no

Now everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Ain't no life for a young girl

All alone in a great big world

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda

Everybody knows Matilda
