One of Us

You're out all night.  You don't come home at all
Damn you.  It ain't right and I won't take no more
You know he'll find out, should someone talk too loud
You belong with me in this poor town

Did he take you home in a car I'll never own
and show you crystal chandeliers?
Tailored shirts - hand made, diamond jewelry, gold and jade
and all those things I just won't ever wear?
And did you walk about them as if it were your custom all along?
He's bound to find out, he'll find out and send you home

Let him know girl
You're One of Us
One of Us
You belong with me in this poor town
He ought to know girl
You're One of Us
One of Us
You know he's gonna find out
And girl you'll crawl back
Back to me, mea and this poor town

Too impressed to phone?  I waited all alone.  You just don't care
Silk laced gold embroidered sheets made to order
All your dreams must have seemed so near
Did you nestle in his arms?  Pour out all your charm?
And thank your god when morning's light still  found you there?
I really ought to learn to lock my door, but I love one rich man's whore

(repeat chorus)

I never saw a silver spoon, well enough taste one
I never broke in brand new shoes
I never gave.  I always found I had to take some
You're just like me.  I'm just like you

(repeat chorus)
