Skid Row lyrics

She blew my mind behind 

the wrecking machine.

She was a shitload of trouble 

called the Subway Queen,

had a hip with bad habits 

and a shake that was a bit obscene.

One night I caught her 

running out the cellar door.

There was about a million people 

lying flat on the floor.

For such a sweet little lady,

I would swear she's rotten to the core.

Oh, yes.

She got her hands in the cookie jar,

smiling like an alligator.

Makin' headlines in the back of her car,

tight-lipped now, but sinks ships later.1

Well, I know a thing or two about

a sweet little sister.

Her mama'd kill her if she knew what she do.

She's my sweet little sister.

She'll love ya black and blue,

sweet little sister.

She's Mona Lisa with a new tattoo.

She's my sweet little,

sweet little sister.

Say, every quitting time is another disease.

Too many cowboys riding high,

shooting low at the knees.

The back hand boogie is the price you pay 

for being the squeeze.

The petting's getting heavy, 

got my tongue in her ear.

Her friend is doing time 

for kicking ass on a queer.

They're in a mental state 

and all my friends are here.

Whoa, yes.

She's telling lies 

through her burgundy lips,

an angel on a mission of mercy.

She'll get you dancin' 

with the crack of the whip.

She'll take you up to heaven 

on her rocket ship.

I know a thing or two about

a sweet little sister.

Her mama'd kill her if she knew what she do.

She's my sweet little sister.

She'll love ya black and blue,

sweet little sister.

She's Mona Lisa with a new tattoo.

She's so sweet, oh, sweet as candy.

She got her hands in the cookie jar,

smiling like an alligator.

Makin' headlines in the back of her car,

tight-lipped now, but sinks ships later.

I know a thing or two about

a sweet little sister.

Her mama'd kill her if she knew what she do.

She's my sweet little sister.

She'll love ya black and blue,

sweet little sister.

She's Mona Lisa with a new tattoo.

She's my sweet little,

sweet little sister.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
