Different Kind of Knight

Lyrics

[Spoken] Uh, I wrote this song because I uh, I got tired of apologizing to women for the way that I am, so Jimmy, you got a pick on you? You know, I'll just do without [Verse 1] Can I cut in on a dance? Ain't gonna find what you're lookin' for in that little Mexican You can't mix your tears with those from an agave plant You see, I've danced with him myself And he's never been a friend You go believing in your Lancelot Well, it's all in vain And you're chasin' picket fences There's always hell to pay I've met many a girl in here with the same storyline All them boys and those white horses don't know how to ridе [Chorus] But I got a paint outside with enough giddyup to be free I got a faint smеll of cheap perfume and a hint of gasoline See, I'm a different kind of knight You're gonna find your fairytales are lies I don't have a white horse But you can come along for a ride [Verse 2] She said, "I'm tired of living life in a romance book I think chivalry's dead And I ain't gonna look for them round table boys On a white horse that can't get the story right." I said, "As luck would have it, I was tossed by the throne I laid my merry hand down, some years ago And I traded my coat of arms For a guitar and some broken yellow lines [Chorus] And I got a paint outside with enough giddyup to be free I got a faint smell of cheap perfume and a hint of gasoline See, I'm a different kind of knight You're gonna find your fairytales are lies I don't have a white horse But you can come along for the ride." [Verse 3] She kinda shifted in her seat a little bit Thought of every eye on her bee-stung lips And she raised glass and the lime and she kissed 'em goodbye She said, "Promise me you'll take it slow And swear, no talk of tomorrow And when you feel me tighten around you Well, you can let the hammer down." [Chorus] 'Cause I got a paint outside with enough giddyup to be free I got a faint smell of cheap perfume and just a hint of gasoline See, I'm a different kind of knight Gonna find your fairytales are all lies I don't have a white horse No, I don't have a white horse Said, I don't have a white horse But you can come along for the ride [Spoken] How was that?
