I was...
Back in LC
Hot on her heels
That's how I wove into that shabby shack
And the place was hot
So I gave it a shot
Without a chance to get my money back
And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping
I was...
Thrown to the street
Got back on my feet
With all that liquor running through my brain...
Last thing I know
I took the blow
I felt our love was just in vain
And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping
You don't see it coming
Out of the blue
You loose control
It's kind of true
Every time
You hit the nail
The blowback gives you
Such a thrill
And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping
