Vicki Lawrence — In Another Womans Arms

Every night I used to get warm By the bathroom heater A cold one-bedroom house My father was the neighborhood cheater Oh, how I dreaded wearing My one dress to the summer dance Strutting along With a back wood boy in baggy pants How I dreamed to change my life some way Or end it in a bayou bay I wanted love, I always thought But every man I loved I always caught Wrapped up in another woman's arms One night I drove in and watch a drive-in movie The hero rode a motorbike And every word he said was groovy He picked up a girl, who looked a lot like me And rode her all around The movie ended when they fell in love and settled down How I dreamed to change my life some way Or end it in a bayou bay I wanted love, I always thought But every man I loved I always caught Wrapped up in another woman's arms Searching too hard, I fell in love with a married man He gave me a son And day and night, the back of his hand Every morning when I woke up I felt an empty space He was living down at Rosie's drinking up the whole damn place How I dreamed to change my life some way Or end it in a bayou bay I wanted love, I always thought But every man I loved I always caught Wrapped up in another woman's arms
