lyrics
TOO EXPERIENCED
1
She doesn't want me around
she's got something to hide
I think she want's a clown
someone to take for a ride
what I keep telling her
I'm too experienced to be taken for a stroll
too experienced for someone to rock and roll
I'm too experienced to be taken for a ride
and I know its not my foolish pride
2
She hates the sight of me
because I turned her offer down
she's always saying we were meant
to be somehow she thought I'd be her clown
and this is what I sing
I'm too experienced to be taken for a stroll
too experienced for someone to rock and roll
I'm too experienced to be taken for a ride
and I know its not my foolish pride
3
She doesn't want me around
she's got something to hide
I think she want's a clown
someone to take for a ride
what I keep telling her
I'm too experienced to be taken for a stroll
too experienced for someone to rock and roll
I'm too experienced to be taken for a ride
and I know its not my foolish pride
