He said, "Can I buy you a drink?" what he meant was, "Can I buy you?"
                               D                                 A
Yeah, his eyes were pits of despair, but his accent recalled the bayou
        G                  D                                          A
Ah, an' women go crazy for guys who talk funny and men who treat them mean
        G                                                          D
Ah, but you deserve better than that, my friend, you are no simple machine

D                                                                    G
You're not a girl who's easily swayed by a quick-witted, sure-footed dancer
                                     D
Yeah, your heart is as large as your great big brain
                          A
And sometimes there is no answer
G                            D
You had your eyes closed and he saw you comin'
                                  A
His good one's the one side you'd seen
        G                                                               D
Aw, but he tried to break you, he didn't realize, you are no simple machine

[CHORUS]
             G      D         A                  D
Just give me one--- night, to wipe the slate clean
                      G      D      A                    D

D                                                           G
He said, "Who's this fool on your arm?" and I said, "Let me at him"
                         D                             A
Oh, his bell begs to get rung and his nose begs to get flattened
        G                    D
Ah, you kept your composure, I'll give you credit
                          A
You led me away from that scene
   G                                                          D

Yeah, it's gonna take all--- night, ah, 'cause you are no simple machine
             G      D         A                  D
Just give me one--- night, to wipe the slate clean
