Last night I met Carl Perkins
And we talked about guitars
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And she can't take that from me
With a wicked heart and a love so bad
She could steal my heart with a knife in my back
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And she can't take that from me
I pay the rent and in all her wakin' hours she wants this, she wants that
What happened to his, hers and ours?
Losing doesn't take a stool anymore
It will all be taxed and taken away for sure
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And she can't take that from me
With a wicked heart and a love so bad
She could steal my heart with a knife in my back
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And she can't take that from me
She got the house and my new cadillac
I got bills, sleepless nights, the bank is on my back
She took everything I had and more
But she can't throw my memories out the door
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And we talked about guitars
Last night I met Carl Perkins
And she can't take that from me
