You promise me this, you promise me that You promise me anything under the sun Then you give me a kiss and you're grabbing your hat And you're off to the races again
When I think of the time gone by Adelaide, Adelaide! And I think of the way I tried Adelaide! I could honestly die
Call a lawyer and sue me, sue me What can you do me, I love you Give a holler and hate me, hate me Go ahead, hate me, I love you
The best years of my life I was a fool to give to you
Alright, already, I'm just a no-good nick Alright, already, it's true, so new So sue me, sue me, what can you do me? I love you
You gamble it here, you gamble it there You gamble on everything, all except me And I'm sick of you keeping me up in the air Till your back in the money again
When I think of the time gone by Adelaide, Adelaide! And I think of the way I tried Adelaide! I could honestly die
Serve a paper and sue me, sue me What can you do me, I love you Give a holler and hate me, hate me Go ahead, hate me, I love you
When you wind up in jail Don't come to me to bail you out
Alright, already, so call a policeman Alright, already, it's true, so new So sue me, sue me, what can you do me? I love you
You're at it again, you're running the game I'm not gonna play second fiddle to that And I'm sick and tired of strolling around And I'm telling you now that we're through
When I think of the time gone by Adelaide, Adelaide! And I think of the way I tried Adelaide! I could honestly die
Sue me, sue me Shoot bullets through me, I love you
