 It’s kinda of a rebound, that’s OK.  She’s married

 didn’t stand in the way; of a good thing.
 
 Shelly was a stripper, a damn good mechanic and a
 friend.  She used to pick me up in her 64 and take me
 places, I’d never been.  She drank vodka on the rocks
 with a tall glass, chased with cocaine and her teenage
 girlfriends.  I couldn’t phase her, that’s OK.  Now
 she livin with a girl named Rene.  Last I heard she
 was teaching in Frisco, she’s got a good thing.
 
 Alice was a bartender at a place I used to play for a
 while.  Some of the girls didn’t like her, she’d get
 20 dollar tips with a smile.  I used to talk to her,
 try to get in her head.  We’d just end up drunk in my
 bed.  I never knew her, that’s ok.  She’s in Vegas
 makin 5 bills a day.  She said I wasn’t too much fun
 when I was sober.  Now she’s got a good thing. 
 
 So, here’s to the lady…whose name it hurts me to say. 
 She’s the perverbial one, that got away.  She said
 life is all a young girl has, and I can’t find mine
 while I’m living your’s.  I don’t blame, that’s OK. 
 She’s married with a kid and a kid on the way.  And
 I’m glad I didn’t stand in the way, of a good thing.  
  Yeah, she’s got a good thing, a good thing. 
 O…..ooooohhhhhhhh, O yeah……..Ooooooh ohhhhh……
