lyrics

When I was just a young boy
I crawled before I learned how to walk.
When I was just a young boy
I crawled before I learned how to walk.
Then I fell in love with you babe
Now I'm crawling 'round like a dog.

You found me like a treasure,
But you lost me like a riddle.
You held me like a guitar,
But you played me like a fiddle.

Come on baby,
Cry a little.

I was a tossing and turning,
You were tossing your hips around.
I was a tossing and turning,
You were turning tricks in the town.

You found me like a treasure,
But you lost me like a riddle.
You held me like a guitar,
But you played me like a fiddle.

Come on baby,
Cry a little.
Come on baby,
Cry a little.

I fumbled for the light switch,
You were fumbling for your clothes.
Like a jailbreak spotlight,
Blinded, busted, stripped of your drawers.
Like a jailbreak spotlight,
Blinded, busted, stripped of your drawers.

You found me like a treasure
But you lost me like a riddle
You held me like a guitar
But you played me like a fiddle

You found me like a treasure,
But you lost me like a riddle.
You held me like a guitar,
But you played me like a fiddle.

Come on baby,
Cry a little.
Come on baby,
Cry a little.

Cry… A little.

I am not really an expert in today's country music. I know and appreciate Sheryl Crow or the Dixie Chicks, but that's it more or less. NIKKI LANE's rocking style with a decent rough edge fits quite well to this "strong women" references. Several songs are catchy and always welcome on my soft music playlists, check for example "First High", "Born Tough" or "Black Widow". H.L.
