Lyrics:

I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me, to me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey come close to me, to me, to me

There's a bridge on the river
There's a bum in the alley
But there's nobody wrapped in her arms
From the stars in the sky to the place where I lie
It's like everyone's under her charm

So we drink in the kitchen
And she's drunk on the sidewalk
Where somebody's starting a fight
But there's not much to say
'Cause we've wasted the day
And everyone's wasted tonight

I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me, to me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey come close to me, to me, to me

Well I know I'm good looking
'Cause I swear on good cooking
My mom says I'm handsome and strong
And she knows that she's pretty
'Cause the sirens of the city
They're singing a sad jealous song

Upstairs the door's open
Where the gun is still smoking
Oh they left every bit of evidence
Save the silver spare rubber
That your boy just discovered
Making sorrow look like confidence

I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me, to me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey come close to me, to me, to me

Standing up is a struggle
When there's juice from the jungle
And I'm filling every cup to the brim

And when John's in the background
And puking his guts out
You can hear them chant 'asshole' at him

On the porch she's with me
Says her name's Bethany
As her eyes pull me into a trance
And she tells me to stay
But she just walks away
I'm a dog and I ain't got a chance

I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me, to me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey come close to me, to me, to me

I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me, to me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey come close to me, to me, to me
