One Particular Chick
I used to get
While the gettin' was good
But if truth be told
I must've misunderstood
Yeah, I might have been
Crossin' the line
But it was just my way
Of passing the time
You might think
It was all just a game
But if the tables were turned
Wouldn't you do the same?
I found out one thing alright
Because something
Changed that night
You know it used to be that
One particular chick
On any given day
Used to do the trick
To make the blues go away
Til I met this
One particular chick
On that particular day
Now this particular chick
Is here to stay
And I like it that way
I used to stay
Until closing time
'Til the last drink was poured
At the end of the line
The last couple had left the floor
The music had stopped
'Til there was just no more
Driving home all alone at night
Another cigarette
Another neon light
In the storefront window
I'd turn to see
The guy in the reflection
Is that really me?
Yeah it was
One particular chick
On any given day
Used to do the trick
To make the blues go away
'Til I met this
One particular chick
On that particular day
Now this particular chick
Is here to stay
It was that one particular chick
Who suddenly caught my eye
Quietly letting me know
I'm her particular kind of guy
And now it's that one particular chick
The one I love so true
And that one particular chick is you!
If she asks to stay one more day
I just can't do it
There's just no way
You'll lose your heart
No matter what they say
So let the chips fall where they may
If you ever say
There is no more
I'll take what's mine
You take what's yours
And we can talk about
The good old days
When we took what we wanted
When we had our own way
If you yearn
For the glamorous life
It's just a mirage
It's shadows in the night
But if you think life's better that way
I've got one thing left to say
You know it used to be that
One particular chick
On any given day
Used to do the trick
To make the blues go away
Til I met this
One particular chick
On that particular day
Now this particular chick
Is here to stay
It was that one particular chick
Who suddenly caught my eye
Quietly letting me know
I'm her particular kind of guy
And now it's that one particular chick
The one I love so true
And that one particular chick is you!
