The Last Time Songtext
von Janiva Magness
The Last Time Songtext
Time is runnin′ out
Friends gone too
Word is gettin' out
And it′s all bad news
Scoundrels know my whereabouts
They recognise these pointy shoes
That's the last time
I'll turn my back on you
The friendly little game of cards
And ace is wild
Your little life was just so hard
Ya had to act like a child
Don′t you recognize the queen of hearts
When she′s standin' right in front of you? Oh
Well, that′s the last time
I'll turn my back on you
That′s the last time I'll turn my back on you
I keep waitin′ for a sign
That we could push it all through
There's a first time for everything
And it was long, long overdue
So, that's the last time
I′ll turn my back on you
Oh-oh
Oh-ooh
Ow!
Yeah
I spent a lot of my money
And I spent a lot of time
Just to hear you call me "Honey"
Send them shivers down my spine
But after a while, it ain′t funny
There's 20-pieces-thing we do
So that′s the very last time
I'll turn my back on you
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah
That′s the last time
I'll turn my back on you
Friends gone too
Word is gettin' out
And it′s all bad news
Scoundrels know my whereabouts
They recognise these pointy shoes
That's the last time
I'll turn my back on you
The friendly little game of cards
And ace is wild
Your little life was just so hard
Ya had to act like a child
Don′t you recognize the queen of hearts
When she′s standin' right in front of you? Oh
Well, that′s the last time
I'll turn my back on you
That′s the last time I'll turn my back on you
I keep waitin′ for a sign
That we could push it all through
There's a first time for everything
And it was long, long overdue
So, that's the last time
I′ll turn my back on you
Oh-oh
Oh-ooh
Ow!
Yeah
I spent a lot of my money
And I spent a lot of time
Just to hear you call me "Honey"
Send them shivers down my spine
But after a while, it ain′t funny
There's 20-pieces-thing we do
So that′s the very last time
I'll turn my back on you
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah
That′s the last time
I'll turn my back on you
