You better take it from me That boy is like a disease You're runnin' and tryin' and tryin' to hide And you're wondering why you can't get free He's like a curse; he's like a drug You get addicted to his love You wanna get out, but he's holding ya down 'Cause you can't live without one more touch He's a good time cowboy Casanova Leaning up against the record machine He looks like a cool drink of water But he's candy-coated misery He's the devil in disguise A snake with blue eyes And he only comes out at night Gives you feelings that you don't wanna fight You better run for your life I see that look on your face You ain't hearing what I say So I'll say it again 'cause I been where ya been And I know how it ends, you can't get away Don't even look in his eyes He'll tell you nothing but lies And you wanna believe that you won't be deceived If you listen to me and take my advice He's a good time cowboy Casanova Leaning up against the record machine He looks like a cool drink of water But he's candy-coated misery He's the devil in disguise A snake with blue eyes And he only comes out at night Gives you feelings that you don't wanna fight You better run for your life Run, run away, don't let him mess with your mind He'll tell you anything you wanna hear He'll break your heart; it's just a matter of time But just remember He's a good time cowboy Casanova Leaning up against the record machine He looks like a cool drink of water But he's candy-coated misery He's the devil in disguise A snake with blue eyes And he only comes out at night Gives you feelings that you don't wanna fight You better run for your life Oh, you better run for your life Oh, you better run for your life
