between 29 and danger

wynette, tammy

i made up my mind today while makin' up my bed

and i make up my face instead of bakin' up some bread

tired of puttin' up with someone who puts me down

so i put on my brand new dress and i sneaked off to town

between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger

but that kind of danger would be sweet

would be sweet relief to me

while he took a bath i grabbed his car keys from the shelf

then i went through his billfold and for once i helped myself

i've washed socks and shirts and shorts and dishes for that man

but today the only thing i'm washin' is my hands

between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger

but that kind of danger would be sweet

would be sweet relief to me

i'm not hold i'm like my car i've got some good years left

but the thought of growin' old with him scares me to death

i've got to learn to walk alone before he makes me crawl

i'd rather be a common tramp than nothin' at all

between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger

but that kind of danger would be sweet

would be sweet relief to me

between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger

but that kind of danger would be sweet

would be sweet relief to me
