You think that you know me
But look in my eyes
Looks like your lover
Is drunk every night

You won't recognize me
Please take your time
Down on my luck, girl
Out of time

Catch as catch can
 Catch as catch can
You walk like a lamb
I'm leaving you

You won't recognize me
Just look in my face
I've been a sinner
I've been a disgrace

Darling you don't know me
Mmm just look in my eyes
I've been out on the town, girl
I've been out on the tiles

Catch as catch can - catch as catch can
 Catch as catch can - go ahead
Walk like a man - stand on your own two feet
You don't understand, you don't understand

Gun in your hand
Yes I'm leaving you

Not a little girl now

You think that you know me, yeah
But look in my eyes
Looks like your lover
Is drunk every night

You won't recognize me
Just look in my face
Looks like your boyfriend
Is a disgrace

Ah, you don't know me, you don't know me
Oh, just look in my eyes
I've been out on the town, girl
Yes I have, I've been out, I've been out every night

Catch as catch can
Walk like a man
Come on little baby
Give my lover every (...) that you can

Catch as catch can - that's what I said
Catch as catch can - come on girl
You walk like a man - I can't understand this
I'm leaving you

 Catch as catch can - that's what I do, I walk like a man
Catch as catch can
You walk like a man
I'm leaving you - hey!
