Walked up in the bar and sat down on the stool

And got the low down from the guy with the jewel

He was playin pool and he thought he was good

Cause he bet me five dimes, he could sink em with his foot

He grabbed a stick, tried to kick it with his heel

Did a sick back flip and ended up full kneel

He didn't squeal, but it looked like it hurt

And it did cause he took me for my cash and my shirt

I got worked, but what's worse than that

Just as he was leaving he tipped his hat

Then he laughed and said, I'm sorry bout your luck

When he walked out the door he got hit by a truck

How bout the guy, used to hang in the clubs

Getting all the numbers and getting all the love

He didn't wear gloves, he was too hard core

May he rest in peace, we don't see him anymore

Lots of stories and old cliches

Small town girl tryin to make her way

She moved to the city, all she wanted was a job

Now she's underneath the desk tryin to move to the top

It won't stop cause the circle won't let it

Be careful what you wish for, you might get it

You know the cat got macked by the bees

He was messin with the honey and the mouse and the cheese
