The Black 47 - Oh Maureen lyrics

Maureen got married to a sanitation worker She's livin' out in Brooklyn with her mother in law And when her old man's sleepin' Maureen comes creepin' down to the local bar She stands there by the juke box In her violent lipstick Givin' all the old men heart attacks Oh Maureen, dial my number baby, You know that I will always take you back Beat me, whip me, make me write bad checks Oooh, I'd do anything for you Oh, Maureen, don't be so mean You know I'll always be in lust with you You know I'm out there waitin' for you somewhere I can feel the steam comin' offa you Oh, Maureen, don't be so mean You know I'll always be in lust with you Maureen I never stopped thinkin' about you Though you kicked me out on the street Sayin' "take your songs and your Stratocaster See if they're half as good in bed as me" Then one night out on the road Called you on a payphone "Forgive me, darlin', I'll be back in a week" A voice said, "Hey stoopid, she want a man not a kid, Maureen is comin' back to Canarsie with me" Oh oh oh oh Maureen You just don't know how I feel Oh oh oh, oh Maureen I think I'm ready to scream Oh oh oh oh Maureen You just don't know how I feel Oh oh oh oh Maureen Oh Maureen just the very thought of ya Makes me weak at the knees Just pa**in' by our old apartment Sends my body shiverin' Throwin' caution to the wind I'm comin' back to Brooklyn I'm gonna save you from yourself Put on your violent lipstick Meet me by the fire escape Can't bear to think about you wrapped around somebody else Beat me, whip me, make me write bad checks.... Oh Maureen, I've been so bad I deserve everything, Maureen I need some of your sweet salvation I deserve everything Oh Maureen....
