Nobody Love, Nobody Gets Hurt Lyrics - Bogguss Suzy

She was all alone at half-past four 

At an all-night small-town convenience store 

When he walked in and locked the door behind him. 

She ducked down behind the counter 

He said "Get up, I know you're down there 

I got a gun. Just hold on, I'll find it." 

He fumbled through the pockets of his faded denim jacket 

Handed her a note and said, "You'd better do exactly what it says..." 

And she read: 

"Nobody love, and nobody gets hurt." 

She looked at him with a nervous grin 

She pointed to that word 

He said "What the hell? I can't spell 

But you know what I meant." 

She said "Yeah, 

But that ain't what you said." 

She said "I don't think you wanna do this 

Sounds to me like there's more to it." 

He said "Spare your views on my abusive childhood. 

Cause the last time I saw my old man 

Was in a photograph in our garbage can 

He never gave a damn, so tell me why I should. 

And you don't know the half of all the demons that I've battled 

You ain't gonna save me with your mindless psychobabble 

I'm damaged goods." 

"Nobody love, and nobody gets hurt." 

And as he walked away in the pouring rain 

She still could hear that word 

He said "What the hell? I can't spell 

But you know what I meant." 

She said "Yeah, 

But that ain't what you said."
