I asked you for a light you lit a cigarette for me
I need a ride you throw me your car keys
Wouldn’t give me just the time of day
You gave me a diamond watch on a silver tray
I can’t take too much
I can’t take too much
I can’t take too much
‘Cause I could take it all and there still wouldn’t be enough
You gave me a penthouse with a view
I said I’d spend the night with you
You made me breakfast in bed
I don’t want to lose my head
Strike a match
I need a light
I’m ready to smoke
I’m ready to burn all night
Strike a match
We got the time
Don’t check your watch
Yeah we got all night
