Lyrics
Well Shirley was a banker but she couldn't count on me
I ran off with all her money that she kept in a can of coffee
Now I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well Shirley, she had it comin' and surely she should've known
That I was no good for anyone and should never be left alone
Now I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win you back again
Shirley, I've cashed a few bad cheques in my day
And Shirley, she done cashed a few, too
But I never did hold a gun to her head like all those other men she knew
But I'm still damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win you back again
