Lyrics
SHE WAS A SINGER
by Mario Jojola
She was a singer, of course he could play the guitar
She came to town from the East Coast
He drifted up from the South
She offered her heart for affection
Ended up sharing a house
She was a dancer, he wouldn't push it that far
She was a singer, of course he could play the guitar
2
She was a laugher, too often he was down in the mouth
Trying to ease the tension
She often took all of the blame
He wasn't one to correct her
Just a player of games
She was a laugher, he always took it too hard
She was a siger, of course he could play the guitar
BRIDGE
She'd sing and he'd play, strangers would smile
She was a beauty, he dressed in black
They went on this way, more than a while
She realized, it's so hard to hold back
She was a swimmer, he never took it that far
She was a singer, of course he could play the guitar
