Girls, Women, and Ladies - Ed Bruce

There was only me and her and him

The bar was giving last call so I thought I’d move on in And I was slick and feeling like a man so I took the stool between 'em

And ordered one more round for me and her and him

I placed my arms across the back of her barstool

And I don’t remember what I said but at the time it sounded cool

She pushed her drink away and never looked at me She just paid her tab tipped the man and left me sittin' there alone with him

And he said there’s girls and there’s women and there’s ladies

There’s yes’es and there’s no’s and there’s maybe’s

There’s teasin' and pleasin' they start learnin' when they’re babies

There’s girls and there’s women and there’s ladies

Well he pushed his old straw hat back and he grinned

And he said ain’t they all a mystery ha ha sonny it’s a sin

They’re all sittin' on the world they’re tryin' to win

Ah but you know I love a mystery

So let’s drink another round to you and me and them

He said there’s girls…

There’s girls and there’s women…

He said there’s girls…
