Lisa Settled Down
guitar chords lyrics
Another friend does the noble thing
makes an honest woman with a golden ring
so many there from the olden days
so many wow it's been how longs
There's Nicki who lives alone
has a steady job and a house of her own
teaching kids with motor neurone
its good to hear she's doing so well
I answer where I have been
until her best intentions truly have worn thin
she butts in, oh I meant to say
did you hear about your first flame?
Oh well Lisa settled down
she went against the odds and wore a wedding gown
Lisa settled down
Oh well Lisa settled down
she went against the odds and wore a wedding gown
Lisa settled down
with our old friend, and took his name
and now they've had a baby son
and I was just as shocked to hear as anyone
wait a minute world!
we cannot be talkin 'bout the same girl
On to Tom with his lawyer's pride
it was in his blood, now fully qualified
he's where he's always wanted to be
a wife and home, the model man
He says
my only regret today
I didn't get a guitar and learn to play
like you did
oh by the way, did you hear about our first flame
Oh well Lisa settled down
she went against the odds and wore a wedding gown
Lisa settled down
with our old friend, and took his name
and now they've had a baby son
and I was just as shocked to hear as anyone
wait a minute world!
we cannot be talking bout the same girl
who tore my dreams apart
not the free spirit
who could never quit the quest to break our hearts?
yes the very same, and don't die of fright
she's on the list for the drinks tonight
she's settled now, and soon you must
grow up and join the rest of us
Every wife has a look of doom
as the elephant comes in to the room
we cross paths at the paying bar
for some wow it's been how long's
All get up for the second dance
that's when I see my window and take my chance
a sober walk home on a summer night
and I think about my first flame
Well, well Lisa settled down
she went against the odds and wore a wedding gown
Lisa settled down
with my old friend, and took his name
and now they've had a baby son
and I'm just as happy for for them as anyone
and the moral view…
some dreams are better off never coming true.
