The Spider And The Fly

Sittin' thinkin' sinkin' drinkin'

Wond'ring what I'll do when I'm through tonight

Smokin' mopin' maybe just hopin'

Some little girl will pass on by

To wanna be alone

But I love my girl at home

I remember what she said

She said My! My! My!

Don't tell lies!

Keep fidelity in your head!

My! My! My! Don't tell lies!

When you've done your show go to bed

Don't say Hi! like a spider to a fly

Jump right ahead and you're dead!





Sit up fed up low down go round

Down to the bar at the place I'm at

Sittin' drinkin' superficially thinkin'

About the rins'd out blonde on my left

Then I said Hi! like a spider to a fly

Remeb'ring what my little girl said

She was coming flirty

She looked about thirty

I would have run away, but I was on my own

She told me later she's a machine operator

She said she liked the way I held the microphone

I said My! My! My! like a spider to a fly

Jump right ahead in my web!
