Makin' A Mess
Skid Row

Ohh ya

A'right

Take it up


T Bone Billy just a singin' the blues he caught his lady with another man

Lit up a smoke and did some talkin' with the back of his hands

Smack

She started shakin' started losing her mind

But he was kicking back and playing it cool

Signed her walkin' papers took the 5:15 to Kalamazoo

Sing for your supper, but nobod' rides for free

Eat your heart out send a C O D

Ya


One, two baby, what you do?

Three, four let me show you the door

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me

Five, six take your last licks

Seven, eight I'm gonna give it to you straight

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me


Now Billy boy's out havin' a ball playin' fiddle at the local bar

The dark shades, cool kicks he's the Hollywood Boulevard

Slick daddy with his fat cigar sayin, 'Sign upon the dotted line'

He shook his head and said, All I need is that fiddle of mine thats all

Sing for your supper, nobod' rides for free

But take your big time off so you can roll of m-m-me, m-m-me ya


One, two baby, what you do?

Three, four let me show you the door

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me

Five, six take your last licks


Seven, eight I'm gonna give it to you straight

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me


Say, trouble keeps knockin'

But Billy keeps a rockin', like this

Ooa


Sing for your supper, nobody rides for free


Sing for your supper, nobody rides for free

Take your bits out I'll take you to m-m-me, m-m-me, m-m-me, yea


One, two baby what you do?

Three, four let me show you the door

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me

Five, six take your last licks

Seven, eight I'm gonna give it to you straight

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of m-m-me


One, two baby what you do?

Ooo

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of me

Five, six take your last licks

(Later)

You're better off dead than makin' a mess of

Mess of, mess of, me, yea


Make a mess of me and you'll be the

Biggest mess you may ever made, ha, ha
