Too Sweet Songtext

Too Sweet Songtext
It can′t be said I'm an early bird
It′s ten o'clock before I say a word
Baby, I can never tell
How do you sleep so well?
You keep telling me to live right
To go to bed before the daylight
But then you wake up for the sunrise
You know you don't gotta pretend, baby, now and then
Don′t you just wanna wake up dark as a lake?
Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
If you′re drunk on life, babe, I think it's great
But while in this world
I think I′ll take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
I aim low, I aim true
And the ground's where I go
I work late where I'm free from the phone
And the job gets done, but you wore some, I know
But who wants to live forever, babe?
You treat your mouth as if it′s Heaven′s gate
The rest of you like you're the TSA
I wish that I could go along, babe, don′t get me wrong
You know you're bright as the morning
As soft as the rain, pretty as a vine
As sweet as a grape, if you can sit in a barrel
Maybe I′ll wait, until that day
I'd rather take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You′re too sweet for me
You're too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You′re too sweet for me
You're too sweet for me
It′s ten o'clock before I say a word
Baby, I can never tell
How do you sleep so well?
You keep telling me to live right
To go to bed before the daylight
But then you wake up for the sunrise
You know you don't gotta pretend, baby, now and then
Don′t you just wanna wake up dark as a lake?
Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
If you′re drunk on life, babe, I think it's great
But while in this world
I think I′ll take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
I aim low, I aim true
And the ground's where I go
I work late where I'm free from the phone
And the job gets done, but you wore some, I know
But who wants to live forever, babe?
You treat your mouth as if it′s Heaven′s gate
The rest of you like you're the TSA
I wish that I could go along, babe, don′t get me wrong
You know you're bright as the morning
As soft as the rain, pretty as a vine
As sweet as a grape, if you can sit in a barrel
Maybe I′ll wait, until that day
I'd rather take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You′re too sweet for me
You're too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You're too sweet for me
You′re too sweet for me
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You′re too sweet for me
You're too sweet for me
