watch out for lucy

Singer:clapton, eric

now my friend bill was just a working lad

and he liked to have his fun. he'd like to find a girl and get comfortable

when his working day was done. he would spend all his money on a friday night

wake up in the morning broke

but he had a run in with little lucy then;

believe me that ain't no joke. watch out for lucy

though she may look frail. say excuse me

lucy

darling don't you use me;

i don't want to land in jail. she started out working in a cafe

picking money up on the side. she was free and easy

everybody's friend

but she couldn't be satisfied. so now in walks bill with his cash in his hand

his heart upon his sleeve. we tried to warn him about her ways

we never did succeed. well

the trap was sprung for poor old bill;

you should have heard little lucy sing

i want a cadillac car
