Getting paid for being laid
So she lays down beside me again
Just forget we ever slept in your rooms
Just a short time to show you the tricks that we've learned
And we'll leave the smell of the sea in your beds
Seems it's always been the same
Where love's just a job and nothing is said
We're all hunting honey with money to burn
Getting paid for being laid
There's a place in the world for a woman like you
Getting paid for being laid
Oh, sweet painted lady
Oh, sweet painted lady
Seems it's always been the same
Forget us we'll have gone very soon
Oh, sweet painted lady
Guess that's the name of the game, oh
Seems it's always been the same
Seems it's always been the same
Well there's pretty young ladies and beer in the rear
Guess that's the name of the game
Getting paid for being laid
You won't need a gutter to sleep in tonight
If the boys all behave themselves here
My sweet painted lady, the one with no name
There's a place in the world for a woman like you
So she lays down beside me again
Oh, sweet painted lady
Many have used her and many still do
Oh, the prices I charge here will see you alright
Many have used her and many still do
My sweet painted lady, the one with no name
Guess that's the name of the game
