Live In Tampa Bay 1992 version - Lyrics
hey
now my wife notices when I watch the other beautiful girls go by and I wrote this song about that, why shouldn't I notice them? I notice handsome men too. I notice, when I was a little kid I used to be afraid to say when I could tell another guy was handsome you know, but I knew, I could tell. Hell, I look at good lookin dogs and cats and stuff and cars and things. So it's only natural that I should notice beautiful women and thier bums and stuff like that
well now you lookin you lookin you lookin
when I'm watchin the different girls passin by
dont you know that I couldnt lose this love
even if i try
dont you think it's kind of funny
all my friends would laugh if they knew, yeah
cause if anybody dont need to worry girl
it's you yeah
If anyone, you've heard me sing all these songs about her already tonight, you know, you can never promise the future, but if anyone doesn't need to worry it's her. What do you mean you can never promise the future? Aren't you and her married? Sort of, but we never got, we just are married, we didn't like, I never like proposed you know, I never did. It was just the way we were. But no I never like, got married. We celebrated one day but we just made up the celebration you know. It was like a party, you know, it was like a party you know.
well now you watchin you watchin you watchin
when Im watchin those different girls go their way, go their way
dont you know that I couldnt lose this love
one sunny day no
now, dont you think that girl's kinda pretty (you can tell another girl's pretty)
pay her a compliment when it's due, yeah
cause if anybody dont need to worry girl
it's you
guitar
one more verse
now you lookin you lookin you lookin
when I'm watchin the different girls go their way
oh now, dont you know that I couldnt lose this love
one sunny day, no
I say, dont you think that girl's lookin good?
it's time to pay her a compliment when it's due
cause if anyone dont need to worry girl
it's you it's you
yeah
