LISA STANSFIELD - Picket Fence lyrics

rate me

When I signed

On the dotted line

I didn't sign up

For this

And when I swore

On the Holy Bible

It didn't mean

Shit to me

Because I fell in love with him

Up to my elbows

Up to my cheek

I knew the man was trouble

They gave me a shovel

And I digged him in

[Chorus]

In my defense

I never wanted

No picket fence

Nor a antique (???)

That's not the way

Hmm, that's not the way

I rest my case

Better get in line

For an orange suit

Too much anger

And so much to lose

So now I'm swearing

On the Holy Bible

To tell the truth, the whole truth

And nothing but the truth

Because I fell in love with him

But we both committed sin

Knew all along that he was trouble

He did, my friend, so I did him, man!

[Chorus]

See, I fell in love with him

Up to my cheek

I knew the man was trouble

Time's abided double

And I'm not giving in

[Chorus]
