Lyrics
She's High Maintenance
She's got me by the throat with her sexy ways
I'm doomed and too hooked to pull myself away
She's got my number and my checkbook's feeling it too
Rolex and Chanel on her list of needs
Paris and Rome and endless shopping sprees
I got a small loan sold the house now she loves me too
Chorus
She's high, oh why, she's high maintenance
I can't afford her shoes
She's high, my my she's high maintenance
I really think I'm screwed
My friends warned me and I ought to know
The taste of good life she will not outgrow
I'll end up with a cup on the street cause I'm just so blind
Cause with a woman like that you have to pay a fee
If she begs to dress in white I might disagree
She's high in the food chain and wants to own my behind
Repeat Chorus
Tired frustrated and unappreciated
This high class life has got me down
What I wouldn't do for a hotdog and a beer
Cause I need a girl with the sense to know
That all she'll ever need she'll find right here, right here with me
Repeat Chorus
