Lady Lyrics - Singles - David Coverdale

(coverdale/moody) 

She got them eagle feathers; cocaine eyes 

She got the heat to make a dead man rise 

A rose in her hair, a devil may care attitude 

She never said she would stay by my side 

She only wanted to be there for the ride 

A bottle of wine, a coupla lines 

She was there for the night 

Tried to change her ways 

I said I'd keep her in a golden cage 

She said: "oh no this ain't no place for me" 

Angel of mercy, angel of greed 

Never stop till she get what she need 

She dance like salome 

An' curses with a matelot tongue 

I said baby won't you slow down for me 

You gotta move if you wanna be free 

Like the wind I'm just blowin' anywhere I please 

Tried to change her ways 

I said I'd keep her in a golden cage 

She said: "oh no, this ain't no place for me" 

Lady, you're no lady 

Youre my woman 

Got the love I need 

You are my woman 

Never change her ways 

Never keep her in a golden cage 

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me" 

Tried to change her ways 

I said I'd keep her in a golden cage 

She said: "oh no, this ain't no place for me" 

Lady, you're no lady 

Youre my woman 

Got the love I need 

You are my woman 

Never change her ways 

Never keep her in a golden cage 

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me" 

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me" 

You might as well set me free...
