Simon Joyner You Got Under My Skin Lyrics

You got under my skin again
You raised the stakes
Took your time
Made your move
Your tongue said, "come cowboy won't you stay"
Then you closed your hazel eyes
Make like a tree lay down some roots

Mama had to split
Papa can't forget
Still me and the babies grew
I spent so much time couldn't tell us apart
Even the wind was looking to turn me loose
Listen I'm not saying I cannot change
I'm not saying I'm not afraid
I sure ain't the first the blues have kicked around
I know part of me is wicked
Although some of me is brave
I sure didn't put you up there to let you down

You said I don't wanna hear
How better of she'll be at dawn when the rooster crows So play me a song so if something goes wrong
Nobody has to go

Well you got under my skin again
You raised the blinds and pulled the sun into the room
I remember how you told me everything rhymes
So just choose your word boy then bend it like a spoon
First you had me as a friend
And you had me up against the piano with the broken teeth
With your typewriter ribbon you had me again in your bedstraw and fireweed

You got under my skin again
You raised the stakes
Took your time
Made your move
Your tongue said, "come cowboy, won't you stay."
You closed your hazel eyes
Make like a tree
Lay down some room
