Lyrics

Written by tim rouillier and leslie winn satcher

I been watchin' you watchin' her watchin' herself in the mirror
In her tailor-made dress an' her long blonde hair
An' her big diamond rings: her custom-made shoes
And I can tell you by the look on your face that you're makin' your move
But she hasn't got time for a man who's tongue-tied
An' she doesn't like cowboys an' thinks less of fools

So, boy, don't you saddle yourself to a high-tone woman
She'll cut up your heart like an' old credit card
When the fun and the money runs out
I've never seen an uptown, well-read thorougbred
High-tone woman sink as low as you

Instrumental break

Hey, I'm on your side; don't go gettin' me wrong, now:
You're not a bad fellow at all
But you're out of her league so stay in the bleachers:
Son, you couldn't please her if you had it all

So, boy, don't you saddle yourself to a high-tone woman
She'll cut up your heart like an' old credit card
When the fun and the money runs out

You're a fool if you saddle yourself to a high-tone woman. (i seen her.)
I've seen her cut up a heart like an' old credit card
When the fun and the money runs out
I've never seen an uptown, well-read thorougbred
High-tone woman sink as low as you

Oh no, I've never seen an uptown, well-read thorougbred
High-tone woman sink as low as you
