Lyrics:

HEY LADY, YOU LADY CURSING AT YOUR LIFE
YOU'RE A DISCONTENTED MOTHER AND A REGIMENTED WIFE
I'VE NO DOUBT YOU DREAM ABOUT THE THINGS YOU'LL NEVER DO

BUT I WISH SOME ONE HAD TALKED TO ME LIKE I WANNA TALK OF YOU

OOH I'VE BEEN TO GEORGIA AND CALIFORNIA AND, ANYWHERE I COULD RUN
I TOOK THE HAND OF A PREACHER MAN AND WE MADE LOVE IN THE SUN BUT I RAN OUT OF PLACES AND FRIENDLY FACES
BECAUSE I HAD TO BE FREE
I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE
BUT I'VE NEVER BEEN TO ME

PLEASE LADY, PLEASE, LADY
DON'T JUST WALK AWAY
CAUSE I HAVE THIS NEED TO TELL YOU WHY I'M ALL ALONE TODAY
I CAN SEE SO MUCH OF ME
STILL LIVING IN YOUR EYES
WON'T YOU SHARE A PART OF A WEARY HEART
THAT HAS LIVED MILLION LIES..

OH I'VE BEEN TO NIECE AND THE ISLE OF GREECE
WHILE I'VE SIPPED CHAMPAGNE ON A YACHT
I'VE MOVED LIKE HARLOW IN MONTE CARLO
AND SHOWED 'EM WHAT I'VE GOT
I'VE BEEN UNDRESSED BY KINGS AND I'VE SEEN SOME THINGS THAT WOMAN AIN'T SUPPOSED TO SEE
I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE,
BUT I'VE NEVER BEEN TO ME.

HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT PARADDISE IS? IT'S A LIE
A FANTASY WE CREATE ABOUT PEOPLE AND PLACES AS WE'D LIKE THEM TO BE
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT TRUTH IS?
IT'S THAT LITTLE BABY YOU'RE HOLDING
IT'S THAT MAN YOU FOUGHT WITH THIS MORNING
THE SAME ONE YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE LOVE WITH TONIGHT
THAT'S TRUTH, THAT'S LOVE

SOMETIMES I'VE BEEN TO CRYING FOR UNBORN CHILDREN THAT MIGHT HAVE MADE ME COMPLETE
BUT II TOOK THE SWEET LIFE
I NEVER KNEW
I'D BE BITTER FROM THE SWEET
I'VE SPENT MY LIFE EXPLORING THE SUBTLE WHORING
THAT COSTS TOO MUCH TO BE FREE HEY LADY

I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE
BUT I'VE NEVER BEEN TO ME

I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE
NEVER BEEN TO ME
I'VE BEEN TO GEORGIA AND CALIFORNIA
AND ANYWHERE I COULD RUN
I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE NEVER BEEN TO ME BEEN TO NEICE ANS THE ISLE OF GREECE
WHILE I'VE SIPPED CHAMPANGE ON A YACHT
I'VE BEEN TO PARADISE NEVER BEEN TO TO ME(FADE)
