lyrics

No one ever could please her
Long enough to keep her around
No one ever stayed either
So she learned how to break them down
Well I knew it was a big mistake
By the trail of dead in her wake
I’ve got a fever and she’s my love dealer

No one ever could please her
All these men seem to let her down
She stays mad and gets even
Gave me the runaround
Well I knew it was a big mistake
The way she made my blood boil in my veins
You’ll get high off her ether and she’s my love dealer

Things weren’t always this way
Someone used her up and threw her away
She stays mad and gets even
She’d rather love ‘em and leave ‘em
Wanting more more more
Loves to love ‘em and leave em.

I’m no good but not evil
It’s hard to keep a good man down
Had to love her and leave her
So she still comes around
Always looking for the next mistake
To chase all these demons away
You don’t want her; you need her
She’s my love dealer

Things weren’t always this way
Someone used her up and threw her away
She don’t get mad she gets even
She’d rather love ‘em and leave ‘em
Wanting more more more
Loves to love ‘em and leave em
Wanting more more more
