Dirty Little Lover

She loves almost as good as she lies

She pretends almost as hard as she tries

Desperation, she wears it so well

Flips on her electric light like ringing a bell

She's the kind of woman only a town like this could produce

Just mean enough to hang a man

Just kind enough to cut the noose

Reached into her purse to pull out her disguise

Put it on her lips and she put it on her eyes

A little lonesome would do her some good

She'd only come out at night if she could

She does it the hard way

Or she don't do it at all

Dirty little lover, who you gonna call?

She's her daddy's karma

And her mother's suit of armor

The bright light in a man's dark eyes

Saved all of her money wasting all of her time

She's the kind of woman

Only a town like this could produce

Just mean enough to hang a man

Just kind enough to cut the noose

She does it the hard way

Or she don't do it at all

Dirty little lover, who you gonna call?
