Mr. Pain - Live 1985

Are there any single girls out there?

If you're listenin' to us on your car radio, girls

Just sigh

We wanna dedicate this next song to all the women out there

Who've ever had their hearts broken by one of these orn'ry men

I wrote this song just for us, girls

It's called "Mr. Pain"

Met my first love down in Texas

Club in San Anton'

Both of us were lonely

Had no one to call our own

So we danced and laughed till closin' time

And had no place to go

So with the top pulled down we drove all night

Ran off to Mexico

But my blond-hair, blue-eyed cowboy

Turned out to be bad news

He disappeared one morning

Left his old boots and the blues

Now there been so many others

But none of them were true

The only one I can count on to

Keep me company is you

Mr. Pain (Mr.)

Oh, it's you again (Pain)

I never really wanted us to be such friends

You always seem to show up when I'm all alone

Well, that's when you move right in

And make yourself at home

Mr. Pain

Oh, Mr. Pain

Well, you'd think by now that I'd

Have learned to see through your disguise

A heartache really shouldn't be

So hard to recognize

But you wear so many faces

And every line is new

And somehow I just always end up

Wakin' up with you

Mr. Pain (Mr.)

Oh, it's you again (Pain)

I never really wanted us to be such friends

You never fail to find me when I'm all alone

Well, that's when you move right in

And make yourself at home

Mr. Pain

Oh, Mr. Pain

Oh, oh, ho

Mr. Pain
