Get a Leg Up

John Mellencamp

Composed by: John Mellencamp
Don't look at me, don't touch me
 Keep your mind straight ahead
 Don't get no funny ideas about me
 Or you'll wish that you were dead
 That's what I'm thinking she must be thinking
 The girl I spent 53 bucks on last night
 She gives me a look from the corner of her eye
 That says, "Boy, keep acting right."
 How surprised was I
 When she leaned over and whispered in my ear
 
 Get a leg up
 Get a leg over boy
 Get a lef up
 What's the matter
 Are you shy, shy, shy?
 
 I'm pretty good with first impressions
 But sometimes I'm not always right
 I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road
 To see what she had in mind
 Want me to spend  the night
 Hey lover boy you know I will
 And my best girlfriend down the road
 Together we will thrill ya
 And I'm thining to myself
 I could be lucky Pierre tonight
 
 If I could get a leg up
 If I could get a leg over boy
 You know I ain't that handsome
 But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy
 
 The rest of the night went on and on
 And the moral to this song
 Don't go making hasty judgments
 Because sometimes they could be wrong
 Nothing wrong with a good time
 Just keep yourself protected, make a list
 And you can bet your life that the women don't know
 The little girrls are acting like this
 So the next time a young one moves up
 And she whispers in your ear
 
 Get a leg up
 Get a leg over boy
 Get a leg up
 Now don't you be shy, shy, shy
