Stranded On Easy Street lyrics


B. R. Hornsby/John Hornsby

Well she was so fine
On the first impression
I was taken, taken in by the view
With eyes so soft
And a face so smooth
I found her selling in a fashion booth
All that I said was "Do you sell suits?"
She said you re a scream and your accent s so cute
Her mother had to meet me, it all sounded funny
But then my friends told me well the girls got money

It s alright, It s okay
Hey don t you worry about a thing
You re the king today but there s a price you may pay
If you take your seat in the royal suite
You might get stranded on easy street

Well she said she was
A good time girl
Laughing laughing a bit too loud
Such a face
The specialist creates
She gets the benefit of the doubt
I know that she wanted more than I could give
But I just had to see how the other half lived
She showed me her friends, she showed me her throne
I didn t sell my soul I just took out a loan

It s alright, It s okay
Hey don t you worry about a thing
You re the king today but there s a price you may pay
If you take your seat in the royal suite
You might get stranded on easy street

She runs to her mother the social x-ray star
She put me at the wheel of her father s new car
She loved how her touch made me want to drive farther
She loved how her money meant she d tell me how far

It s alright, It s okay
Hey don t you worry about a thing
You re the king today but there s a price you may pay
If you take your seat in the royal suite
You might get stranded on easy street
