Perpetual Blues Machine - Keb' Mo'

You had style, you had class

You had everything to make a love last

You had grace, you had charm

You had me hanging on your arm

When I found out you were a fake

You rared up and bit me like a snake

And I was ready to let go

And let all my feelings show

Tell me why you wanna be so cold

Why you wanna be so mean

You’ve gone and let your true colors show

You’re a perpetual blues machine

We could have been just fine

If you’d have only been all mine

'Cause I was for real, but you did not know

That you were steppin' on my heart

As you were walkin' out the door

But now I know who you are

And it’s a damn good thing we didn’t get too far

'Cause I’m not the one that’s right for you

You need a man to do your rolling

Like what you want him to do

Tell me why you wanna be so cold

Why you wanna be so mean

You’ve gone and let your true colors show

You’re a perpetual blues machine

Now you’ve gone, and I’m glad

That we didn’t let it go too bad

You know I tried to make it go

But there was just no way to tell u so

Tell me why you wanna be so cold

Why you wanna be so mean

You’ve gone and let your true colors show

You’re a perpetual blues machine
