Creeps Like Me

by Lyle Lovett





I wear Grandmother's ring

On my finger

On my finger

She had a tooth of gold

And just before she died

She said son

You can have my tooth

But do I

Really have to go



Look around

And you will see

This world is full of creeps like me

You look surpised

You shouldn't be

This world is full of creeps like me



And I keep my Uncle Leon

In my closet

In my closet

There don't nobody know

Just me and Uncle Leon

And my closet

And they wonder

Where'd that old man go



Look around and you will see

This world is full of creeps like me

You look surpised

You shouldn't be

This world is full of creeps like me



And I knew this pretty girl once

She was eighteen...

Maybe

What's a year or two

And one day when she asked me

If I loved her

I said baby

What's it worth to you



But look around

And you will see

This world is full of creeps like me

You look surpised

You shouldn't be

This world is full of creeps like me

And I wear Grandmother's ring

On my finger

On my finger

She had a tooth of gold

She had a tooth of gold

She had a tooth of gold
