My Defences Are Down Lyrics & Tabs by Irving Berlin
My Defences Are Down
guitar chords lyrics
I've had my way with so many girls
And was lots of fun
My scheme was to know many girls
To keep me safe from one
I find it can be done
My defenses are down
She's broken my resistance
And I don't know where I am
I went into the fight like a lion
But I came out like a lamb
My defenses are down
She's got me where she wants me
And I can't escape no how
I could speak to my heart when it wakened
But my heart won't listen now
And I can't escape no how
I could speak to my heart when it wakened
But my heart won't listen now
Like a toothless, clawless tiger
Like an organ-grinder's bear
Like a knight without his armor
Like Samson without his hair
My defenses are down
I might as well surrender
For the battle can't be won
But I must confess that I like it
So there's nothing to be done
Yes, I must confess that I like it
Being miserables gonna be fun
His defenses are down
She's broken my resistance
And he's in an awful jam
I went into the fight like a lion
But you came out like a lamb
My defenses are down
She's got you where she wants you
And you can't escape no how
I could speak to my heart when it wakened
But my heart won't listen now
Like a toothless, clawless tiger
Like an organ-grinder's bear
Like a knight without his armor
Like Samson without his hair
My defenses are down
I might as well surrender
For the battle can't be won
But I must confess that I like it
So there's nothing to be done
Yes, I must confess that I like it
Being miserables gonna be fun
