A Woman of the World

[Verse 1] When she was just a girl She became a woman of the world Soon there wasn't room enough for her In between the bosoms of her family She popped the cork Got on the Greyhound to New York Small-talked her way 'round just the sort Of playboys' playgrounds she'd once dreamed about [Chorus] Maybe I love her But I'm jealous of her She's a woman of the world [Verse 2] (She's a fake) Sure, but she's a real fake (On the make) Making up for lost time (Just you wait) Give the girl a break (And fifty dollar bill will See to that) That ain't enough to feed the cat (Serve up the rats and super rats) They just get fatter While she fades away [Chorus] Maybe I love her Cause I'm jealous of her She's a woman of the world Maybe I hate her Cause I didn't create her It's human nature, girl Maybe I'll suffer Just to be her lover Just to be part of her world Maybe I need her Because I want to be her Baby, can I be your girl Maybe I'll kill her Just trying to thrill her If she don't kill me first [Verse 3] We're making eye contact Oh those hypnotic eyes attract Such philanthropic flies that's that You cannot stop it so why the devil do you try?
