Jude Cole - First Your Money (then Your Clothes) lyrics

One September in the pouring rain

A midnight flyer and a girl named Lori Rose

Mama said, son it won't last

She'll be gone when you're out of cash

Hey mama, I need a ride back home

All your life you run to love

You give your heart then it's not enough

But hey baby, that's the way it goes

So Romeo in a G.T.O.

Met Juliette at the drive-in show

Midnight dreaming down the Texas coast

We stopped to wish upon a star

She stole my breath, she stole my car

But hey baby, it's just the way it goes

Every time that your heart breaks

You swear you won't make the same mistakes

But hey baby, that's the way it goes

First your money, then your clothes

Oh no, love ain't cheap

There's a toll booth up on Lover's Leap

Sweet romance, take a chance

Come and dance with me

I'm riding out on a southbound train

Just a Romeo in the pouring rain

But hey baby, that's the way it goes

First your money, then your clothes

Uh-huh

Slow down, slow down now

(Oh yeah)

Hey mom, slow down

(Slow down)

When you roll out, 'cause I'm low down now

(Oh yeah)

Said hey hey mom, slow down when you roll down

'Cause I'm low down now
