Hey lady
you lady
cursing at your life
You're a
discontented mother
and a regimented
wife
I've no doubt
you dream about
the things
you'll never do
But I wish someone
had talked to me
Like I wanna
talk to you
Oh
I've been to Georgia
and California
and anywhere
I could run
I took the hand
of a preacher man
and we made love
in the sun
But I ran
out of places
and friendly faces
because I had
to be free
I've been
to paradise
but I've never been
to me
Please lady
please lady
don't just walk away
Cause I have this
need to tell you
why I'm all alone
today
I can see
so much of me
still living
in your eyes
Won't you share
a part
of a weary heart
that has lived
million lies
Oh
I've been to Niece
and the Isle
of Greece
while I've
sipped champagne
on a yacht
I've moved
like Harlow
in Monte Carlo
and showed them
what I've got
I've been undressed
by kings
and I've seen
some things
that a woman ain't
supposed to see
I've been to
paradise
but I've never
been to me
Sometimes
I've been to
crying for
unborn children
that might have
made me complete
But I took the
sweet life
I never knew
I'd be bitter
from the sweet
I've spent my life
exploring the
subtle whoring
that costs too much
to be free
Hey lady
I've been to
paradise
But I've never
been to me
I've been to
paradise
never been to me
I've been to Georgia
and California
and anywhere
I could run
I've been to
paradise
never been to me
I've been to Neice
and the isle
of Greece
while I've
sipped champagne
on a yacht
