Verse 1
There's a lot of cheap talk about the road I take
There's a lot of bold horses gettin' stuck at the gate
There's a lot of mean boys with some time to kill
There's a lot of good women gettin' stuck with the bill
Chorus
So won't you let this foolish feeling make you stay
There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay
This boy is where your heart should be
Cause you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free
Same as verse 1:
There's a long legged lady livin' up on the hill
She got eyes like a cheetah, like a two dollar bill
I take her on down, take her out for a whirl
Then I let her fly free cos I know that she will
Chorus
So won't you let this foolish feeling make you stay
There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay
This boy is where your heart should be
Cos you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free
Bridge
You can paint your way but you're gonna have some hell to pay
Cos when the dogs come barking at your back you better watch what you say
Cos a day without a night is like a child without no fight
And all the diamonds shinin bright won't help you see
That you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free
Same as verses:
There's a lot of cheap talk about the road I take
There's a lot of bold horses gettin' stuck at the gate
I'd give you my heart but I know it's too late
And I ain't got the time to sit around here and wait
Chorus
For you to let this foolish feeling make you stay
There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay
This boy is where your heart should be
Cos you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free
