Ricky Dale

Sitting by the side of the street Couldn't sell more lemonade than you could drink You thought it was funny that you drank up all our money But I cried and went inside Spent some extra time on my hair that day But at school you messed it up and ran away You thought it was clever to poke holes in my new sweater But I threw my fist at you Oh, Ricky Dale You put me through some happy kind of hell But we always stick together just as well Oh, no, no, Ricky Dale You asked me what to do to make her smile So I sat up with you talking for a while You thought it was crazy how you have to treat a lady But you tried, yeah, you tried You called me from the bar and said it's bad Then you ordered shots of whiskey on my tab You didn't understand why she didn't like your band And you cried, but I laughed inside Oh, Ricky Dale You put me through some happy kind of hell But we always stick together just as well Oh, no, no, Ricky Dale You never fail To take all of the wind out of my sail And I try to shake you off to no avail Oh, no, no, Ricky Dale Every day I look outside my door To see you walking up the steps like just before And if you only knew just how much I needed you Would you say you need me too Oh, Ricky Dale You put me through some happy kind of hell But we always stick together just as well Oh, no, no, Ricky Dale You put me through some happy kind of hell But we always stick together just as well Oh, no, no, Ricky Dale
