Sonja Lyrics by Lyle Lovett

Sonja Lyrics

    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 freind 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 way
    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
