I made up my mind today while makin' up my bed And I make up my face instead of bakin' up some bread Tired of puttin' up with someone who puts me down So I put on my brand new dress and I sneaked off to town Between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger But that kind of danger would be sweet Would be sweet relief to me While he took a bath I grabbed his car keys from the shelf Then I went through his billfold and for once I helped myself I've washed socks and shirts and shorts and dishes for that man But today the only thing I'm washin' is my hands Between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger But that kind of danger would be sweet Would be sweet relief to me I'm not hold I'm like my car I've got some good years left But the thought of growin' old with him scares me to d**h I've got to learn to walk alone before he makes me crawl I'd rather be a common tramp than nothin' at all Between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger But that kind of danger would be sweet Would be sweet relief to me Between twenty-nine and danger in the arms of a stranger But that kind of danger would be sweet Would be sweet relief to me
