Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals - Put It On Me lyrics

She eats nectarines with honey Spends her daddy's money so easy She cuts cherry pie While she looks you in the eye So easy The innocent naive of Hairless cheek The politics of generosity Make me weak There's an a**a**in out to get me And they claim that She's never missed The one with an ex-lover Whom she claims To have never kissed We turned at twenty paces For love is a duel And we stood still as stone I can't imagine that This is in the best interest Of flesh and bone I've been living in the city For much too long There's a neon sign in my mind Flashing right and wrong I can't afford your company I spent my money buying time I was lost out in the desert while You were busy swimming in wine You put it on me Then left me lonely
