You got to love her
She screamed at my dad that I'm a winner
She really digs me
She's scared the house might fall on us
While were sleeping
She's scared that we are going nuts
That's whay I'm thinking
WHOA YEAH
WHOA YEAH
{PRECHORUS)
She takes pot to come down
Yeah coke for the confedience
All kinds a pills if she had the money she would get them
Huffing for a challenge
Acid for the love of it
AND AND AND AND AND drinking just for fun!
{CHORUS}
My girlfriends on drugs(3 times)
Her brain is going, going, going, going, gone
She swears that cat is stealing our money
You got to love her
When she sees a cop she will burst out laughing
She's going crazy
When I put her to bed she says thank you superman
I think I like it
She showed up at my work on something...she screamed

Oh yeah,
Whoa no.
She passed out at my parents' dinner (you gotta love her).
She screamed at my Dad that I'm a winner ("He's a winner!") (she really digs me).
She's scared the house might fall on us (while we're sleeping).
She's scared that we are going nuts (that's what I'm thinking).
Whoa yeah.
Whoa, whoa yeah.
She takes pot to come down,
Yeah coke for the confidence.
All kinds of pills if she had the money she would get 'em.

She showed up at my work on something she screamed "I'm a daisy!"
Whoa yeah.
Whoa, whoa yeah.
She takes pot to come down,
