Spent my money like a fool
Just to keep her attention
She treated me kindly she treated me cruel
She did things I can’t mention
Things were hot then things got cold
It never was in the middle
She dragged my heart up about a thousand stairs then
Threw it out the window
So I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Baby let me tell you it’s slim pickin’s now
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Sorry honey but singing this tune is all my heart can allow
I told myself a million times.
“Never let a woman own me”
The shorter the skirt the longer the hurt
That’s what my daddy told me
There’s a thing called joy and pain and I always find myself between it
I’ll never let a woman trick me again and this time I really mean it
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Baby let me tell you my chips have all ran down
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Sorry honey but singing this tune is all my heart can allow
Solo
I got taken for a ride I’d be the first to tell ya
The problem is when I say no it always comes out as Hell Yeah
Do with me what you will should be tattooed on my forehead
There’s probly never been a bigger sucker than me since history’s been recorded.
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Baby let me tell you it’s slim pickin’s now
I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel
Sorry honey but singing this tune is all my heart can allow
