Same as verse 1:
There's a long legged lady livin' up on the hill
She got eyes like a cheetah, like a two dollar bill
I take her on down, take her out for a whirl
Then I let her fly free cos I know that she will
So won't you let this foolish feeling make you stay
There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay
This boy is where your heart should be
Cos you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free

There's a lot of cheap talk about the road I take
There's a lot of bold horses gettin' stuck at the gate

For you to let this foolish feeling make you stay
There comes a time when all your leavin' doesn't pay
This boy is where your heart should be
Cos you might find it cheap
But you're never gonna find it for free
