Sixteen Bars by Todd Fields

Hear me when I say girls play all the games its easier if you let me know if you really wanna go don’t play like you don’t know

You know if you really wanna be mine all you gotta do is smile when your eyes meet mine then I’ll give you what you need

Sometimes the girls try to play like its not mine the next thing you know they give it up to me in no time let me tell ya bout this girl well she taught me if you put your mind to it you can be everywhere you wanna be and its not about the money and I know it sounds funny if she wants to she goes there to work there to see all she’s seen the Rockies the hills Alaska and the Tetons on her stop to work the races it was like our vacation we had rock star smiles tatted right across out faces and well you know that I know that she knew what she want

You know if you really wanna be mine all you gotta do is smile when your eyes meet mine then I’ll give you what you need

Come to think not everything is cut and dry sometimes you find the girls got no time its hard to separate it if you want to exacerbate it parents can’t always make time for you to make it so the girls got kids and you know what I did I caught her on her night off and she a came to see the kid she ended up getting what she wanted to get and that’s all right she came to spend the night and her husband wouldn’t like it but he wouldn’t invited yes I said her husband I’m sorry bout the loving but she said he was cheating so we set up a meeting

You know if you really wanna be mine all you gotta do is smile when your eyes meet mine then I’ll give you what you need

Then you find sometimes it doesn’t matter what you do the girl doesn’t fall into you lap the way you’re used to late night conversations wait to see the sunshine take her out to dance to the movies and a wine and dine but it don’t matter she can’t be treated better when her hearts not there the game is fixed the game is not fair but if you wanna know she says she plays no games never played so many stupid games but I ain’t naming names the problem is we’re like to sides of a magnet we play the same game so we can’t be attracted I’ve come to decide my credit cards been denied

You know if you really wanna be mine all you gotta do is smile when your eyes meet mine then I’ll give you what you need

Sometimes you find a girl and she’s the more than you thought you could handle girl cool chick with the right attitude sucks more dick than a prostitute but she knows what she’s wanting older chicks are horny several times we fucked all night until the morning but I got to be honest she’s a straight shooter she’s always honest with me and that just makes her cuter and it doesn’t matter to me that she’s twelve years older she’s got a son closet to my age than his mamma that ain’t cougar to me experience is key

You know if you really wanna be mine all you gotta do is smile when your eyes meet mine then I’ll give you what you need
