Once Bitten, Twice Shy

Well the times are getting hard

For you little girl

I'm a humming and a strumming

All over god's world

You can't remember when

You got your last meal

And you don't know

Just how a woman feels

You didn't know what

Rock and roll was

Until you met my drummer

On a grey tour bus

I got there in the nick of time

Before he got his hands

Across your state line yeah

Now it's the middle of the night

On the open road

And the heater don't work

And it's oh so cold

You're looking tired

You're looking kind of beat

The rhythm of the street

Sure knocks you off your feet

You didn't know how rock and roll looked

Until you caught your sister

With the guys from the group

Halfway home in the parking lot

By the look in her eye

She was giving what she got

I said my my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

Oh woman you're a mess

Gonna die in your sleep

There's blood on my amp

And my les Paul's beat

Can't keep you home you're messing around

My best friend told me

You're the best lick in town

You didn't know that rock and roll burned

So you bought a candle

And you lived and you learned

You got the rhythm

You got the speed

Mama's little baby

Likes it short and sweet yeah

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

Ah

I didn't know you had a rock and roll record

Until I saw your picture

On another guy's jacket

You told me I was the only one

But look at you now

It's dark and you're gone

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby

My my my

I'm once bitten twice shy baby oh

So shy so shy so shy so shy

So shy so shy so shy

So oh so shy oh ah so shy

Oh shy ah

Oh so shy oh so shy
