Lyrics

[Verse 1] She works downtown in an unmarked bar Flyin' round poles, she always gave me the fright of my life I didn't mean to get involved It was the alcohol mixed with an empty feeling inside [Pre-Chorus] It's such a bad idea To fall in love with a "lady of the night" [Chorus 1] (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Why couldn't God give her two left (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Feet? (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Then she couldn't run away from me [Verse 2] Months go by, and I'm alone in bed While she's greasing up for when the businessmen and lawyers arrive I've got to wear a beard, a suit, and tie To get past the door if I want to see my girl tonight [Pre-Chorus] I go to all this effort Just to see my fair Patricia going home with some other guy [Chorus 2] (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Why couldn't God give her two left (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Feet? (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Then she couldn't run away from me (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Oh, why couldn't God give her two left (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Feet? (Woo ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh) Then she couldn't run away from me [Bridge] She thinks I'm sad And that's alright But she doesn't hate me, so There's my little alibi I can't, I can't leave, I can't, I can't I can't, she's my coked-up, botox girl Patricia, Patricia [Outro] Oh, Patricia The stripper, you are my sunshine Oh, Patricia The stripper, come on home tonight Oh, Patricia The stripper, you are my sunshine So why can't you come home with me tonight?
