Lyrics
'Coulda Been Your Baby'
Coulda been your baby,
Coulda been your high class dancin' queen,
Coulda been your life,
Coulda been your saviour,
Coulda been your word out on the street,
Coulda been your freedom,
But it just ain't right.
But you got up before you fell down,
N' you went in before you got out,
N' you're too proud to say you got it wrong,
Cos you're so crazy.
Coulda been so good boy,
You an' me n' a bunch a' love,
Coulda been your lady,
Coulda watched the sunrise,
Coulda seen those castles in the air,
Become our lives,
Well only maybe...
N' how'my ever gonna be your friend
If I'm your enemy?
It Sure has taken me too long to see,
You ain't no better n' me,
I can't make it to the corner shop,
Without you here with me,
N' it's too hard...love ain't free.
And what is wrong with thinkin' big,
Don't you have a dream by which you live?
Ain't you got a dog's day life a' charm
To see you through?
Yeah you got it made,
Yeah you got it all,
You got the looks,
But you ain't got the balls,
Take a damn good look,
Take a look at me,
I think you'll see...
And how'my ever gonna be your friend
If I'm your enemy?
It Sure has taken me too long to see,
You ain't no better n' me.
I can't make it to the corner shop,
Without you here with me,
N' it's too hard...love ain't free.
