Washington Lilacs

You look like you've been through hell

But came back clean on the other side

Lord knows that I didn't treat you well

But you'll be treated like a queen

Tonight

So darlin', won't you lie back

And just let an old flame warm you

I know I'm not the same me

And Lord knows you're not the old you

So babe, just pack your things

And I swear that we won't come back

You're about as pretty as those Washington Lilacs

I roll up with a killer in my hand

And I'll never claim

To be better than I am

You look like a killer in that dress

So I guess my aim is to be your man

So darlin', won't you lie back

And just let an old flame warm you

I know I'm not the same me

And Lord knows you're not the old you

So babe, just pack your things

And I swear that we won't come back

You're about as pretty as those Washington Lilacs

So darlin', won't you lie back

And just let an old flame warm you

I know I'm not the same me

And Lord knows you're not the old you

So babe, just pack your things

And I swear that we won't come back

You're about as pretty as those Washington Lilacs
