I met a woman in West Virginia Said her name was Alabama She from a little town outside Savannah Where everyone talk that country grammar She said she killed a man down in Atlanta He beat her and he drank til he couldn′t stand up He told her that he loved her but he couldn′t stand her She caught him in his sleep hit him with a hammer Then she sold her car and she bought a gun Johnny Law got her on the run Another broken bottle and the damage done We′ve all been blinded by the sun
Blinded by the sun...
Her breathe was sweet, her eyes were pretty She said her zodiac sign was cancer She was on her way to New York City Trying to get a job there as a dancer Then she asked if she could ride home with me Now I′m still thinking on the answer She pulled on love... She don′t take pity She′ll break your heart if you give her the chance to If Grandma′s got an Uzi and it weighs a ton Johnny Law got her on the run Another broken bottle and the damage done We′ve all been blinded by the sun, blinded by the sun Sun...sun...sun
Lord have mercy on me for all the things I′ve done I′ve lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun Don′t forsake me Lord I′m not the only one I′ve lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun Blinded by the sun
And Grandma′s got an Uzi and it weighs a ton Johnny Law got her on the run Another Broken bottle and the damage done We′ve all been blinded by the sun...blinded by the sun.
You told me it′s the truth but I′m still afraid I′m not the one who would jump the gun If I had proof, I′d take off my shades And be blinded by the sun
One lie, two lies, I shoulda said shoe flies Shame on me, I usually see through lies Said you loved me, yeah right, I thought we were air tight You were playing foul, It was far from a fair fight I hung onto your every word, sweetest shit I ever heard I even made you pinky swear just so I was reassured The rumors started gettin back, that so and so was hittin′ that Silly me for being such a ′natic for that kitty cat
You told me it′s the truth but I′m still afraid I′m not the one who would jump the gun If I had proof, I′d take off my shades And be blinded by the sun You said you were in love but the games you played I hope that you′re having fun You see I need you to take off my shades And be blinded by the sun
Three lies, four lies, you shoulda been a tour guide The way you led me on, knowing I was one of four guys Said you loved me, okay, where were you the other day? Your car was parked at 38th but you were at your mothers place?
Your mother lives on Broadway, I followed you all day I called but you ignored it when you kissed him in the hallway Call me crazy, call me odd, call me what you want to But Karma is a bitch, I pray to God she always haunts you
You told me it′s the truth but I′m still afraid I′m not the one who would jump the gun If I had proof, I′d take off my shades And be blinded by the sun You said you were in love but the games you played I hope that you′re having fun You see I need you to take off my shades And be blinded by the sun
I wear my sunglasses so I can, so I can I wear my sunglasses so I can, so I can I wear my sunglasses so I can, so I can I wear my sunglasses so I can, so I can
You told me it′s the truth but I′m still afraid I′m not the one who would jump the gun If I had proof, I′d take off my shades And be blinded by the sun You said you were in love but the games you played I hope that you′re having fun You see I need you to take off my shades And be blinded by the sun
