  • Share my body and my mind with you
    That's all over now
    Did what I had to do
    'Cause you're so far past me now
    Share my body and my life with you
    That's way over now
    There's not anymore I can do
    You're so famous now

    Got your Bible, got your gun
    And you like to party and have fun
    And I like my candy and your women
    I'm finally happy now that you're gone

    Got my little red party dress on
    Everybody knows that I'm the best
    I'm crazy, yeah yeah
    Get a little bit of Bourbon in ya
    Get a little bit suburban
    And go crazy, yeah yeah
    Because you're young, you're wild, you're free
    You're dancing circles around me
    You're fucking crazy
    Oh oh, oh oh, you're crazy for me

    I shared my body and my mind with you
    That's all over now
    I did what I had to do
    I found another, anyhow
    Shared my body and my mind with you
    That's all over now
    I did what I had to do
    I could see you leaving now

    I got your Bible and your gun
    And you love to party and have fun
    And I love your women and all of your heroin
    And I'm so happy now that you're gone

    Got my little red party dress on
    Everybody knows that I'm a mess
    I'm crazy, yeah yeah
    Get a little bit of Bourbon in ya
    Get a little bit suburban
    And go crazy, yeah yeah
    Because you're young, you're wild, you're free
    You're dancing circles around me
    You're fucking crazy
    Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, you're crazy for me

    Got your Bible and your gun
    You like your women and you like fun
    I like my candy and your heroin
    And I'm so happy, so happy now you're gone

    Got my little red party dress on
    Everybody knows that I'm the best
    I'm crazy, yeah yeah
    Get a little bit of Bourbon in 'ya
    Get a little bit suburban
    And go crazy, yeah yeah
    Because you're young, you're wild, you're free
