Lady

(coverdale/moody)



She got them eagle feathers; cocaine eyes

She got the heat to make a dead man rise

A rose in her hair, a devil may care attitude

She never said she would stay by my side

She only wanted to be there for the ride

A bottle of wine, a coupla lines

She was there for the night

Tried to change her ways

I said i'd keep her in a golden cage

She said: "oh no this ain't no place for me"



Angel of mercy, angel of greed

Never stop till she get what she need

She dance like salome

An' curses with a matelot tongue

I said baby won't you slow down for me

You gotta move if you wanna be free

Like the wind i'm just blowin' anywhere i please

Tried to change her ways

I said i'd keep her in a golden cage

She said: "oh no, this ain't no place for me"



Lady, you're no lady

Youre my woman

Got the love i need

You are my woman

Never change her ways

Never keep her in a golden cage

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me"



Tried to change her ways

I said i'd keep her in a golden cage

She said: "oh no, this ain't no place for me"



Lady, you're no lady

Youre my woman

Got the love i need

You are my woman

Never change her ways

Never keep her in a golden cage

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me"

Cos she say: "oh no, this ain't no place for me"



You might as well set me free...
