Muskrat Love: World's best ever lyrics?

Did Boots write that?

 

I really do appreciate
The fact you're sittin' here
Your voice sounds so wonderful
but your face don't look too clear

So barmaid, bring a pitcher
Another round of brew
And honey, why don't we get drunk and screw?

Why don't we get drunk and screw?
I just bought a water bed that's filled up for me and you
They say you are a snub queen
But honey, I don't think that's true
So why don't we get drunk and screw?

 

I thought you were doin the lyrics to Kyper's Tic Tac Toe, circa 1989 or 1990:

Tic Tac Toe is a game I used to play.
When I was little I used to say
I got the X and I got the O.
It don't matter cause it's Tic-Tac--Toe.

Now I'm a little bit older.
I like to play just a little bit bolder.
I like gettin' girls and givin' em pearls
And their legs across my shoulders.

I love to go to the disco.
See a fly girl and say hello.
They just look me in the eye and pass right by
With that booty shakin like Jello.

I like to speak cause that's bein' nice.
It makes me mad when I have to speak twice.
But that's the game that girls like to play
It's just Tic-Tac-Toe and roll the other way.

[Chorus:]
X, and O. As in yes, and no.
X, and O. As in sex, maybe so.

X is for yes and O is for no.
X is for sex or maybe so.
You might get some if you play this game.
All girls love it but smooth is their game.

That's why they just walk right by.
Laughin, gigglin, shakin that pie.
Girls are what you what when you come up to them,
So don't play dumb and try to school em.

That's when you got to be real cool.
Jump in the biz and act a fool.
Pull out the portable car phone.
Next thing you know you'll be drivin' em home.

On the way there you're thinkin' bout one thing.
Girls ain't dumb they know you want the wild thing.
You through the X and go for the kiss.
They throw the O and go for the dis.

[Chorus]

Do you wanna play Tic-Tac-Toe?
Do you wanna play Tic-Tac-Toe?
Do you wanna play Tic-Tac-Toe?
Do you wanna play Tic-Tac-Toe?

[Chorus]

I met this girl by the name of Judy.
Kind of cute with a real nice booty.
Hard to get and likes to play tough
Cause she knows I want the funky stuff.
When I spoke, she wouldn't even speak
Til she saw me in the biz that week.
Took her to the movies and bought her a treat.
Went to my house and made the bed squeak.

Yeah that Judy puts up a fight
But I won with the X cause I rolled that night.
Just when things started to feel good
We rolled a little fast and we broke the wood.
My dad got up cause he heard some knockin'.
Thought it was a crook me and Judy was rockin'.
Came to my room opened up the door
Son whatcha doin'?
Playin Tic-Tac-Toe.

 

Ahem.


She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

She talks kinda lazy
And people say she she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

Fadeout:
It keeps growing every place she's been
And nobody knows like me

If you've met her, you'll never forget her
And nobody knows like me

La la la- believe it when you've seen it
Nobody knows like me

 

Those last two songs are both pretty great -- which says a great deal about my eclectic taste in pop music.

 

I never turn off "Love Grows" on the radio. Ever.
Sad. So very sad.

 

Not really. I used to be embarrassed when I said I liked a particular song, but not any more. A good song to me is a good song no matter what anyone else might think about it. And "Love Grows" is a good song!
