Get a leg up lyrics

Don't look at me, don't touch me
Keep your mind straight ahead
Don't get no funny ideas about me
Or you'll wish that you were dead

That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking
The girl I spent $53 bucks on last night
She gives me a look from the corner of her eye
That says, "Boy, keep acting right."

How surprised was I when she leaned over
And whispered in my ear

Get a leg up (ah)
Get a leg over boy (yeah, yeah)
Get a leg up (ah)
What's the matter, are you shy, shy, shy?

I'm pretty good with first impressions
But sometimes I'm not always right
I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road
To see what she had in mind

Want me to spend the night
Hey, lover boy you know I will
And my best girlfriend that lives down the road
Together we will thrill ya

And I'm thinking to myself
I could be lucky Pierre tonight

If I could get a leg up (ah)
If I could get a leg over boy (yeah, yeah)
You know I ain't that handsome, no (ah)
But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy

Oh, goddamn, baby

The rest of the night went on and on
And the moral to this song
Don't go making hasty judgments
'Cause sometimes they could be wrong

Nothing wrong with a good time
Just keep yourself protected, make a list
You can bet your life that the women don't know
Their little girls are acting like this

So the next time a young one moves up
And she whispers in your ear

Get a leg up (ah)
Get a leg over boy (yeah, yeah)
Get a leg up (ah)
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy

Now, get a leg up (ah)
Get a leg over boy (yeah, yeah)
You know I ain't that handsome (ah)
But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy, yeah

Get a leg up (ah)
Get a leg over boy (yeah, yeah)
Get a leg up (ah)
Now don't you be shy, shy, shy

Oh, shotgun
