Lyrics for Ladies of the Road
A flower lady's daughter As sweet as holy water Said, "I'm the school reporter Please, teach me", and I taught her Two fingered levied sister Said, "Peace", I stopped, I kissed her Said, "I'm a male resister" I smiled and just unzipped her High diving Chinese trender Black hair and black suspender Said, "Please, me no surrender Just love to feel your Fender" All of you know that the girls of the road Are like apples we stole in our youth All of you know that the girls of the road Been around then are versed in the truth Stone-headed Frisco spacer Ate all the meat I gave her Said, would I like to taste hers And even craved the flavour "Like marron-glaced fish bones Oh, lady hit the roa!" All of you know that the girls of the road Are like apples we stole in our youth All of you know that the girls of the road Been around then are versed in the truth (Ladies of the road Ladies of the road Ladies of the road)
