Sonja Lyrics - Lyle Lovett

I've never been lucky 

At picking up women 

But this life that I live 

Is not one that I choose 

She was a waitress 

With hair blond and curly 

With a pretty black dress 

And those Japanese shoes 

Man I need to impress her 

'Cause I'd like to undress her 

I need a song about Sonja 

When I'm singing tonight

She looked so pretty 

As she poured my coffee 

But she had her eye 

On my freind at the bar 

And I watched her watch him 

And I watched her thinking 

I wish her eye was on me 

Man I need to impress her 

'Cause I'd like to undress her 

I need a song about Sonja 

When I'm singing tonight 

And if I could sing her 

A tender love ballad 

I'd hope that the audience might sing along 

But I can't find the right way 

To tell her my feelings 

And still make the words rhyme with Sonja

No I've never been lucky 

At picking up women 

But this life that I live 

Is not one that I choose 

She was a waitress 

Now she's gone forever 

And I'm stuck with this song 

That I never will use 

Man you need to impress her 

If you want to undress her 

Sing a song about Sonja 

When you're singing tonight 

Sing a song about Sonja 

When you're singing tonight
