You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady



You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady



They all need you

to make love to

when you awake

you'll find them on the bed

lying beside you

they all love you

you're a good girl

and you are surprised

when you realize

which way you're going to



You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady



You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady



If I told you

where you're going to

you'd laugh in my face

it's not my place

mind your business

they all want you

to make love to

it's a shame to play the game

the way you've been lied to



You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady



You could have been all right

you could have been here tonight

you could have been sweet as wine

you could have been a lady
