Pretty Mean - original (Bring the Song Challenge)

This is my first entry for Grumpy Coyotes "Bring the Song Challange". But since I'm just a dumb Swede, Adelle The Great ( http://www.youtube.com/adellethegreat ) was kind enough to write me some snazzy lyrics.

Pretty Mean

Last thing I remember
she was standing in the door.
Six rings on her fingers
and a skirt that touched the floor.

Momma's like a 12 gauge-
that kick back is a bitch.
But you know that I come running
Every time I get that itch

From the backseat of a Chevy
she once proclaimed her love
riding in the eastbound lane
Sun shining from above

But it wasn't very long then
Seven weeks right to the day
Standing by the road side
empty pockets and a heap of shame

[Chorus:]
Oh I'm not a broken man
but it's a weary man you see
and oh won't you tell me lord
how such a pretty thing could be so mean

I learned my lesson early
you only trust yourself.
Always keep your cards down
and never share the wealth.

But she was a sweet young thing
her eyes of lightest blue
she knew just what to say to me
and she sure knew what to do.

[Chorus]
