dr hook - what a way to go lyrics
(b. david/j. rushing)
i met him in seattle, he was gettin’ down on a bottle
telling lies in the blue moon bar
his face was hard and travelled, and as the wine unravelled
i saw a man who could laugh about his scars
he said, i got shanghaied in vegas by a painted woman
i got hog-tied by a hustler in ohio
i got derailed by a dancer down in dallas
oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
he said a girl named nancy, once tickled his fancy
and backed it up with a fifty dollar smile
he laughed when he remembered, the pain of sweet surrender
but heartaches never seemed to cramp his style
he said, i got tongue-tied by a teacher in tallah-ssee
i got french-fried by a waitress in idaho
i got way-laid by a widow in wyoming
oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
he said, i got shanghaied in vegas by a painted woman
i got hog-tied by a hustler in ohio
i got derailed by a dancer down in dallas
oh lord, he said, women gonna be the death of me but what a way to go
