Once Bitten Twice Shy Lyrics - Strings Attached - Ian Hunter

(Hunter)Well the times are gettin' hard 

For you little girl 

I'm a-hummin' and a-strummin'All over God's world 

You can't remember when 

You got your last meal 

And you don't know 

Just how a woman feels 

You didn't know what 

Rock-n-roll was 

Until you met my drummer 

On a grey tour bus 

I got there in the nick of time 

Before he got his hands 

Across your state line 

Now it's the middle of the night 

On the open road 

And the heater don't work 

And it's oh so cold 

You're lookin' tired 

You're lookin' kinda beat 

The rhythm of the street 

Sure knocks you off your feet 

You didn't know how rock-n-roll looked 

Until you caught your sister 

With the guys from the group 

Halfway home in the parking lot 

By the look in her eye 

She was giving what she got 

My, my, my 

Once bitten, twice shy babe 

My, my, my 

Once bitten, twice shy babe 

My, my, my 

Once bitten, twice shy babe 

Woman you're a mess 

Gonna die in your sleep 

There's blood on my amp 

And my Les Paul's beat 

Can't keep you home you're messin' around 

My best friend told me 

You're the best lick in town 

You didn't know that rock-n-roll burned 

So you bought a candle 

And you lived and you learned 

You got the rhythm 

You got the speed 

Mama's little baby 

Likes it short and sweet 

CHORUSI didn't know you had a rock-n-roll record 

Until I saw your picture 

On another guy's jacket 

You told me I was the only one 

But look at you now 

It's dark and you're gone 

My, my, my 

Once bitten, twice shy
