I Have Trouble With DatesThough it ended bad when I took her out beforeLisa said she’d go dancin’ with me once moreWell, the band was on a breakWhen this gorgeous redhead babeCame up and made me start sweatin’She said “back in June, didn’t we git a roomAnd have a honeymoon without a wedding”I shrugged my shoulders, lied like a dog and told herI have trouble with datesThere’s some things I just can’t placeAll that stuff I smoked in schoolKilled a brain cell or twoAll that stuff the barkeep poursMusta killed some moreI seem to recall your faceBut I have trouble with datesSaid I musta been three sheets to the windCos warmin’ the sheets with her wasn’t sinkin’ inShe wrote her number n nameAnd as she walked awayLisa came outta the powder roomShe said “who in the world was that pretty girlWith the ruby curls…did you go out with her, too”I said with a guilty smile…Baby it’s been awhileAnd I have trouble with datesThere’s some things I just can’t placeAll that stuff I smoked in schoolKilled a brain cell or twoAll that stuff the barkeep poursMusta killed some moreI seem to recall your faceBut I have trouble with datesLisa grabbed the paper, And saw the name was “Kate”Well, I caught hell, that was the name I yelled on our first dateOur second date went up in flamesAnd that’s a crimeBut I have trouble with namesAnd that’s why sometimesI have trouble with datesI have trouble with dates…©2007 Robert George
