downtown girls look pretty in the bar lights
downtown girls look pretty after hours
they look like trouble and they taste like gin
but they smell like dogwood flowers
downtown girls man they're all the same at heart
they're just going through the motions
they'll call you handsome if you buy them a drink
they're as empty as a valentine's day without the roses
downtown girls are gonna hurt you
they only care about themselves
downtown girls are gonna desert you
and leave you feeling sorry for yourself
a downtown girl's like a card game
she can bluff a mean 21
i'd sneak her in to all my favorite bars
she can lie to your face through a smile
i should have seen it coming
downtown girls are gonna hurt you
they only care about themselves
downtown girls are gonna desert you
and leave you feeling sorry for yourself
a downtown girl man she could have been the one
if it was only me she'd chosen
she's got these eyes that can turn stars to stone
the only problem is she knows it
downtown girls are gonna hurt you
they only care about themselves
downtown girls are gonna desert you
and leave you feeling sorry for yourself
downtown girls are gonna hurt you
they only care about themselves
downtown girls are gonna desert you
and leave you feeling sorry for yourself
aw yeah well...
