Get A Leg Up Lyrics

John Mellencamp

Don't look at me, don't touch me Keep your mind straight ahead Don't get no funny ideas about me You'll wish that you were dead
That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night She gives me a look from the corner of her eye I said, "Boy, keep acting right"
How surprised was I When she leaned over and whispered in my ear
Get a leg up, get a leg over boy Get a leg up, what's the matter Are you shy, shy, shy?
I'm pretty good with first impressions But sometimes I'm not always right I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road To see what she had in mind
Want me to spend the night Hey lover boy you know I will And my best girlfriend lived down the road Together we will thrill ya
I'm thinking to myself I could be lucky Pierre tonight
If I could get a leg up If I could get a leg over boy You know I ain't that handsome But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy
Ah goddamn baby
Rest of the night went on and on And the moral to this song Don't go making hasty judgments Because sometimes they could be wrong
Nothing wrong with a good time Just keep yourself protected, make a list You can bet your life that the women don't know The little girls are acting like this, yeah
So the next time a young one moves up And she whispers in your ear
Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up Now don't you be shy, shy, shy
Now get a leg up Get a leg over boy You know I ain't that handsome But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy
Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up Now don't you be shy, shy, shy
