Lyrics
Drowning Pool Eyes
D
She'll tell you she's sorry
A
Then she'll toss her hair
G
Look at you sadly
A
And it hits you right there
D
It didn't mean nothin
A
All that you saw
G
She was just funnin
A
When she took off her bra
D G
Here you go another time around
A D
Caught in the undertow, swirling down
D A
You think by now, you'd know it's all lies
A
But you just can't say No to those
G D
Drowning Pool Eyes
It's only a truck
At least she's OK
Just bad luck
And it ain't even paid
Those tequila shooters
Musta done her wrong
Or maybe the beers
Could be the bong
CHORUS
Back to bankruptcy
That spree with your card
Could happen to anybody
Knows how to charge
She's the best girl
That you ever had
Best in the world
You just hope she comes back
CHORUS x 2
A
You just can't say No to those
G D
Drowning Pool Eyes
A
You just can't say No to those
G D
Drowning Pool Eyes
