wild as a turkey

well

i'm wild as a turkey

higher than a christmas moon

empty as my wallet on a sunday afternoon

i come around too fast

and i always leave too soon

ain't that what they all say?

i come down from memphis

with a broken down corvette

a suitcase full of memories

and face you won't forget

you say you'll never love me

but the night ain't over yet

i'm gonna change your mind

girl

i've been a gambler since the age of 21

i've seen my share of troubles and the wrong end of a gun

this whole worlds out to get me just because i have my fun

they ain't gonna slow me anyway

right ain't right babe

and left ain't always wrong

i bet you're tired of dancing to the same old song

you look like an angel in a place you don't belong

i'm gonna take you away

just because this place is closing that don't mean it's time for bed

we don't need no sleep girl

we'll get plenty when we're dead

oh

these fools behind you and come with me instead

i'm gonna show you a time

well

i'm wild as a turkey

higher than a christmas moon

empty as my wallet on a sunday afternoon

i come around too fast

and i always leave too soon

ain't that what they all say?
