Lyrics
I was just noticing that you were noticing
That girl at the end of the bar.
Take it from me she's not worth any effort you'll make.
Don't bother - Don't waste your time
Don't go up to her saying,"Your place or mine?"
It won't work.
She's married to a man who's old enough
To be her Dad for heaven's sake!
Chorus:
She's such a Dumb Girl - as blonde as they get.
Don't go up to her - she won't let you in yet.
No No No
Can't you see you've got to have the money, honey.
Well, I used to date her, but that's another story
From a long, long time ago.
Now I'm sure she don't even know who I am.
Don't bother - Don't waste your time.
Quit trying to give her a piece of your mind.
It won't work.
She lives just a block from me now with that older guy.
(chorus)
Bridge:
She's his - to have and to hold
She's his - bought and sold
She's his - purchased with a band of gold
Ain't it amazing how a girl sells her soul? (chorus)
