That’s What She SaidI bent that barkeep’s ear nearly all night long‘bout how my girlfriend was comin’ on strongHow she’s classy and we see things differentlyWhat does she want with a cowboy like meHe slid me a double rye across the barAnd told me the road to love is long n hardHEY…that’s what she said Last night when we were talkin’ in bedShe’s in love and wants us to start thinkin’ aheadShe longs to be legally wedso that’s what she saidHe heard me mumblin’ pros and cons at my drinkHe said “I’ll bet it’s all simpler than you thinkShe’s not some debutante hooked on a bad boyWhen she’s through she won’t toss you like a toyNow it looks like your drink is almost doneSo how’s about another tall stiff one”HEY…that’s what she saidAnd told me to make her martini wetMe I like Lucky Strikes and booze from a jug or kegBut she likes uptown drinks insteadSo that’s what she saidI said “ok barkeep…better stop me at fourShe’ll be waitin’ with a kiss at the doorSo if you got some coffee how about a cupI need somethin’ strong n hot to keep me upHEY…that’s what she saidLast night when we were talkin’ in bedIt was late my body ached and my eyes were redBut she bosses me like we’re wedAnd that’s what she said©2007 Robert George
