For That Pretty Girl

Lyrics

She sang “Hallelujah” soft and sweet
and the men lined up to fall down at her feet
I fought them back they cussed and cursed
I knew I had to get there first
I’d do about anything for that pretty girl

Tattooed her name directly on my heart
knowing it was bound to leave a scar
I didn’t care how much it hurt
or if she dragged me through the dirt
I’d do about anything for that pretty girl

Desperation causes men regret
But I ain't regretting desperation yet
Desperate’s not what I'd prefer
But I'm desperately in love her
And I'd do about anything for that pretty girl

I’d give my own right hand
and my left would be at her command
No they’re not only words, when I say….
I do about anything for that pretty girl
Yeah, I’d do about anything for that pretty girl

So forty hours a week I’ll spend my life
underneath the cold fluorescent lights
Security don’t come with thrills
but i always have and I always will
do anything for that pretty girl

I’d give my own right hand
and my left would be at her command
No they’re not only words, when I say….
I’d do about anything for that pretty girl
Yes, I’d do about anything for that pretty girl
