Lyrics
Alibi
by: Daniel Emmet Sullivan
I roled into the door about four in the morning,
she blind sided me without any warning,
A frying pan is a pretty good weapon,
In the hands of an angry woman who's a steppin',
Up to make her claim upon her man,
Who's been out drinking with the boys again,
I'm running for cover and wanting to hide,
what I really need is a good alibi
I need an alibi,
I need a real good excuse,
For my two timing, beer drinking, bar hopping, skirt chasing,
Life so loose,
I need an alibi,
I need a line that aint been used,
iIf I don't think of something fast,
Well this here breath may be my last,
I said I think I'm going to die,
Oh Lord I need an alibi,
Well I don't mean no harm I'm just a good timing man,
Trying to have some fun with my good timing friends,
It aint my fault if the ladies are a good timing too,
I try to keep them at a safe distance,
But once I've had a few you know I'm losing my resistance,
I can't lose if I lose, can't win if I win,
Oh no here she comes I'm in trouble again.
I need an alibi,
I need a real good excuse,
For my two timing, beer drinking, bar hopping, skirt chasing,
Life so loose,
I need an alibi,
I need a line that aint been used,
iIf I don't think of something fast,
Well this here breath may be my last,
I said I think I'm going to die,
Oh Lord I need an alibi,
Lead
I need an alibi,
I need a real good excuse,
For my two timing, beer drinking, bar hopping, skirt chasing,
Life so loose,
I need an alibi,
I need a line that aint been used,
For my two timing, skirt chasing, beer drinking,bar hopping,
Double dealing, girlfriend stealing, whisky chuggin', girlie huggin',
Kiss snatching, booty crackin', backseat whackin', pancake stackin',
Lip smacin' life so loose.
