Lyrics for Sweetheart Like You by Rod Stewart:
| | | Artist: | Rod Stewart |
| | Album: | A Spanner In The Works | | Track: | Sweetheart Like You | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 81 | | | | Lyrics: | Well the pressure's down the boss ain't here
He gone North he ain't around
They say that
vanity got the best of him
But he sure left here after sundown
By the way that's a cute
hat
And that smile so hard to resisit
But what's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump
like this?
You know I once knew a woman who looked like you
She wanted a whole man
not just a half
She used to call me sweet daddy when I was a child
In order to deal in
this game, got to make the Queen disapear
It's done with a flick of the wrist
What's a
sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
You know a woman like you should be at
home
That's where you belong
Watching out for someone who loves you true
Who would
never do you wrong
Just how much abuse will you be able to take
Well there's no way to
tell by that first kiss
What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
You
know you can make a name for yourself
You can hear them tires squeal
You can be known as
the most beautiful woman
Who ever crawled across cut glass to make a deal
You know,
news of you has come down the line
Even before you came in the door
They say in your
father's house there's many mansions
Each one of them got a fireproof floor
Snap out of it
baby people are jealous of you
They smile in your face but behind your back they
hiss
What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
Got to be an important
person to be in here, honey
Got to have done some evil deed
Got to have your own harem
when you come in the door
Got to play your harp until your lips bleed
They say that
patriotism is the last refuge
To which a scoundrel clings
Steal a little and they throw
you in jail
Steal a lot and they make you King
There's only one step down from here,
baby
It's called the land of permanent bliss
What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump
