When I warm my stirred can, behold friend o mine.
That I set my side on Monday and I grabbed myself, Andreas
Oh, yet ready for the offer, but I do agree, Berris Dimes
When I warm my stirred can, behold friend o mine.
Original Lyrics:
Well, I tried to make it Sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on Monday and I got myself undressed
I ain't ready for the altar, but I do agree there are times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine.
That I set my sights on Monday and I got myself undressed
I ain't ready for the altar, but I do agree there are times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine.
