Generate meaning
1
She ran out of luck and started sweatin' bullets
2
She tried to get a job but she couldn't do it
3
Now she's livin' in a suitcase out on the street
4
He said I love your family they sure are funny
5
You know I hate to ask but can you loan me some money
6
Tryin' to get a grip, tryin' to get back on my feet
7
She's sleepin' in the kitchen on the hardwood floor
8
Said it fixed her back, it don't hurt no more
9
She's lookin' real good, but she's still havin' trouble with her knees
10
They lookin' for some kinda satisfaction
11
Workin' off some kinda chain reaction
12
Tryin' to get a handle on whatever it is they need
13
Victims... Of the situation
14
Can't rise above their own desperation
15
They keep on pushin'
16
But they can't get it up to speed
17
He's standin' in the mirror combin' his hair
18
Gettin' all dressed up but he ain't goin' nowhere
19
You could cut him with a knife
20
And I betcha he wouldn't even bleed
21
He said hey doc take a look at this
22
It don't work and I'm scared to death
23
He said I got somethin' for you but you only get the first one free
24
Never seen a woman that crazy 'bout a man
25
Like a devil and an angel hand and hand
26
She knows what he is, but that ain't the life he leads
27
They lookin' for some kinda satisfaction
28
Workin' off some kinda chain reaction
29
Tryin' to get a handle on whatever it is they need
30
Victims... Of the situation
31
Can't rise above their own desperation
32
They keep on pushin'
33
But they can't get it up to speed
