Album: Promises, Promises [Chart]
(Jerry Lane - Slim Williamson)
Ten times up and three times down
Everybody knows that's the way to drown
And then it's too late to swim into the shore
And this'll be the third time you left me for her.
And there ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
When you leave you'd better pack
'Cause you ain't comin' back
There ain't gonna be no another time.
Before we explain what I'm a talkin' about
Three strikes baby and then you're out
You've already had two swings at the ball
There's just one more and I'm afraid that's all.
'Cause there ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
When you leave you'd better pack
'Cause you ain't comin' back
There ain't gonna be no another time.
--- Instrumental ---
I've always heard about the third time charm
And this is the strip number three that make two arms
I hope you'll find what you're looking for
'Cause I'm changing the lock on my front door.
And there ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
When you leave you'd better pack
'Cause you ain't comin' back
There ain't gonna be no another time.
There ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
There ain't gonna be no another time
When you leave you'd better pack
'Cause you ain't comin' back
There ain't gonna be no another time...
