Draggin' My Heels

Hollies · Russian Roulette [2006]

First at the gate post but the last one through

I hung around far too long for you

Left out the game left out the deal

Stupid of me to be draggin' my heels

Oh oh oh draggin' my heels

Oh oh oh draggin' my heels, heels

Time waits for no one and I wasted my time

Got to the crossroads but took the wrong sign

I'd go too far didn't know how she'd feel

Stupid of me to be draggin my heels

Oh oh oh draggin' my heels

Oh oh oh draggin' my heels, heels

If I had the chance to go back again,

I wouldn't do the same

I learned by mistakes

I'd be on my knees I'd be there to please

I'd be anything you want me to be

You want to be

verse 1

heels, heels
