My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
I said, my my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
But look at you now, it's dark and you're gone
The heater don't work and it's oh so cold
Can't keep you home, you're messin' around
Before he got his hands across your state line, yeah
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
And you don't know just how a woman feels
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
You got the rhythm, you got the speed
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
Until I saw your picture on another guy's jacket
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
I didn't know you had a rock 'n' roll record
Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep
You told me I was the only one
You didn't know how rock 'n' roll looked
Until you met my drummer on a gray tour bus
Half-way home in the parking lot
Now it's the middle of the night on the open road
I got there in the nick of time
My best friend told me, you're the best lick in town
You can't remember when you got your last meal
You didn't know that rock 'n' roll burned
You didn't know what rock 'n' roll was
Mama's little baby likes it short and sweet I said
My my my, I'm once bitten twice shy, baby
So you bought a candle and you lived and you learned
The rhythm of the street sure knocks you off your feet
Until you caught your sister with the guys from the group
You're lookin' tired, you're lookin' kinda beat
By the look in her eye, she was giving what she got said
There's blood on my amp and my Les Paul's beat
