Every Time I Itch I Wind Up Scratching You Songtext / Lyric

You know my love my only wish is happiness for you

So I work real hard to strike it rich but everytime I do

I blow it all on some ol' witch I hardly ever knew

How come every time I itch I wind up scratchin' you?



When everything ain't goin' right I hurry home to you

You kiss my lips and you comfort me as only you can do

But the eagle flies on Friday night and my senses fly off too

How come every time I itch I wind up scratchin' you?






I dream of comin' home to you

A knight in shinin' armour

'Cause it seems to me

That you rate much more

Than a broken down

Busted farmer.



Everytime I get ahead I act like someone new

I waste the whole night talkin' big and spendin' money too

Then I sneak in bed beside you broke and blue

How come every time I itch I wind up scratchin' you?...
