V1.
There's a woman out the window,
I've seen her kind before.
She will break into your heart before you let her in the door.
Some days I got no hustle,
Not much to go around
But she'll squeeze out every drop and leave me crawlin' on the ground.
She lingers like an echo when I try to cut her loose,
But there ain't no other channel to choose. She got me...
CHORUS:
Kickin' like a mule.
Tryin' to keep it cool.
V2.
There are stories people tell me
'Bout her whistle and her blow,
How she's villainous to rattle and she's venomous to hold.
I keep paying no attention
To the sages and the signs
I can't find a thing amusin' 'bout a stableness of mind.
I'll lose before I'm winning. I'll choke before I breathe,
But there won't be no avoiding her, she got me got me got me...
CHORUS:
Kickin' like a mule.
Tryin' to keep it cool.
BRIDGE.
There ain't no doubt about it,
There's nothin' I can say.
I should probably steer around it, but hey!
She got me...
