When She's Got Me (Where She Wants Me)

By: David Allan Coe

LAST NIGHT SHE MADE IT PLAIN SHE DIDN'T WANT ME

TODAY I WOKE LATER AND ALONE

TOMORROW I'LL BE TURNING' TO THE BOTTLE

TONIGHT I'LL BE COLD AND ALL ALONE

SHE ONLY BROKE MY HEART LORD, NOT MY SPIRIT

SHE ONLY TOOK MY BODY, NOT MY SOUL

MY SKIN STILL BURNS IN PLACES WHERE SHE TOUCHED ME

AND WHEN SHE TOUCHED ME LORD, I LOST MY SELF-CONTROL

WHEN SHE'S GOT ME WHERE SHE WANTS ME

SHE DON'T WANT ME



I'M JUST ANOTHER GAME SHE LIKES TO PLAY

I DON'T THINK I CAN MAKE IT THROUGH TOMORROW

I ALMOST NEVER MADE IT THROUGH TODAY

SHE SURE KNEW HOW TO LOVE ME, WHEN SHE LOVED ME

WHEN I WAS WEAK SHE ALWAYS COME ON STRONG

SHE KNEW JUST WHAT IT TOOK TO DRIVE ME CRAZY

AND SHE KNEW HOW MUCH I HATE TO BE ALONE

WHEN SHE'S GOT ME WHERE SHE WANTS ME

When She's Got Me (Where She Wants Me)
