Gonna get it right
Gonna put lipstick on tonight
Gonna wear a dress
The one that shows my legs
You'll be running around
Running around like a fool
Do I pull my hair out
Shake it out
Put it in a bow
Or leave it down
I know, I know
I'm acting like a little girl
But it's not easy for me
But it's lovely to be
A little less heavy
and a little old cherry
on the icing for me
Walk into the room
Talk to everyone but you
Slide in close
like a wanted ghost
But when it's time to go
I promise I will let you know
Can I take you home
Maybe take you out
When we're drunk a little less
we can drink some more
But don't you forget
the little black dress
No, it's not easy for me
But it's lovely to be
A little less heavy
and a little old cherry
on the icing for me
Yeah, a little less heavy
and a little old cherry
on the icing for me
So you gotta get it right
Put lipstick on tonight
Gonna wear that dress
The one that shows your legs
You'll be running around like a fool
