lyrics
Tiger of a Tale
On that foggy foggy night
All I saw was those headlights turning down that long twisted drive
All that I can recall is you saying you don’t love me at all
and that you’re better off with a monkey on your back
I didn’t cry
I don’t try
cuz I’m better off with a Tiger of a Tale
There was one memory sweeter than my sweetest tea
That was those headlights through the fog
Tell me now
How does your ship sail with a big ol hole in it’s side
Oh I like the mornin dew
but the night whispers through
those ol cobwebs in my mind
I can be a s stubborn as they come
but at the end of the day
I’m just a Woman who likes to get things done
On that foggy foggy night
All I saw was those headlights turning out that long twisted drive
On that foggy foggy night
All I saw was those headlights turning down that long twisted drive
All that I can recall is you saying you don’t love me at all
and that you’re better off with a monkey on your back
I didn’t cry
I don’t try
cuz I’m better off with a Tiger of a Tale
There was one memory sweeter than my sweetest tea
That was those headlights through the fog
Tell me now
How does your ship sail with a big ol hole in it’s side
Oh I like the mornin dew
but the night whispers through
those ol cobwebs in my mind
I can be a s stubborn as they come
but at the end of the day
I’m just a Woman who likes to get things done
On that foggy foggy night
All I saw was those headlights turning out that long twisted drive
