Chico Bennett - Popular lyrics

Cathy lives alone The smile she wore has turned to stone Because she hasn't got Everything she wanted when she was a young girl Pretty things that cost a lot Oh, why? I'll tell you why She wants to be so popular It makes her stand out on the street at night And wave her skirt at every boy who pa**es by So popular If she'd only give love a try Love a try The streets They get so dark She never sees the light Working til the break of day Oh, she's got a man, she says He treats her so right He gives her ten percent of her take every night That's messed up Oh, why She wants to be so popular It makes her stand out on the street at night And wave her skirt at every boy who pa**es by So popular If she'd only give love a try Love a try Slide, y'all Knowing about corners She wants to be so popular It makes her stand out on the street at night And wave her skirt at every boy who pa**es by So popular If she'd only give love a try Love a try
