Lyrics

Jaime was a girl from another life who wore a
low cut blouse, to pick up guys
Like any girl would, if any girl could
if any girl wanted to get dirty looks

Jaime was the girl that makes you burn at night
because your body's always telling you to get inside
Of Jaime's old house, of Jaime's new clothes, tell
Jaime that you love her and she'll shake and moan,

Jaime took me walking by the river side
Where the drunks talk loud and the bums get high
On these dirty streets where the day died young
And you can't recall where the light came from

Jaime used to worry she was out of time
because her Ma met Pa at the age of nine
And they married young and now they're growing old
And mama wore a white dress Jaime can't borrow


But that's not how it ought to be
My mama taught me about dignity
But there's still a lot of man in me

And I still get lonely


I want Jaime on the her knees, I want Jaime begging please
Baby, Baby, Baby give it me


Jaime gave me one too many drinks that night
So the air felt warm in the winter time
We hugged the ground and the deep wet snow
My gut stayed warm but my feet got cold
Woke up in the morning in her father's clothes
With her far less drunk and me far less bold

We didn't feel warm, We didn't feel cold,
We didn't make love, We just felt old
