Sonja Lyrics

Sonja - Lyle Lovett

Intro: G walk up to C
I've never been lucky at picking up women
But this life that I live is not one that I choose
She was a waitress with hair blond and curly
With a pretty black dress and those Japanese shoes
Man I need to impress her 'cause I'd like to undress her
I need a song about Sonja when I'm singing tonight
She looked so pretty as she poured my coffee
But she had her eye on my friend at the bar
And I watched her watch him and I watched her thinking
I wish her eye was on me
Man I need to impress her 'cause I'd like to undress her
I need a song about Sonja when I'm singing tonight
And if I could sing her a tender love ballad
I'd hope that the audience might sing along
But I can't find the right words to tell her my feelings
And still make the words rhyme with Sonja
No I've never been lucky at picking up women
But this life that I live is not one that I choose
She was a waitress now she's gone forever
And I'm stuck with this song that I never will use
Man you need to impress her if you want to undress her
Sing a song about Sonja when you're singing tonight
Sing a song about Sonja when you're singing tonight
