To tell her we were through I was sure it would break her heart Tear her world in two She is such a fragile thing Lord, I hate to make her cry So I broke it to her gently When I told her goodbye She cussed me like a sailor Kicked a hole through the kitchen wall She threw a fit and threw the phone Half-way down the hall She said"I'll be down at the bar" Then I heard the front door slam I guess all in all She took it like a man I was thinking she'd reach out to me And beg me not to go Or run straight to her momma's 'Cause I'd hurt her so Thought she'd be devastated I had a tender moment plan I didn't think that she could take it But she took it like a man
Well, I was raised in a sophisticated kind of style. Yeah, my taste in music and women drove my folks half wild. Mom and Dad had a plan for me, It was debutantes and er-symphonies, But I like my music hot; I like my women wild.
Yeah, an' I like my women just a little on the trashy side, When they wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed. Too much lipstick an' er too much rouge, Gets me excited, leaves me feeling confused. An' I like my women just a little on the trashy side.
Shoulda seen the looks on the faces of my Dad and Mom, When I showed up at the door with a date for the senior prom. They said: "Well, pardon us son, she ain't no kid. "That's a cocktail waitress in a Dolly Parton wig. I said: "I know it dad, ain't she cool, that's the kind I dig."

Instrumental break.
I like 'em sweet, I like 'em with a heart of gold. Yeah an' I like 'em brassy, I like 'em brazen and bold. Well, they say that opposites attract, well, I don't agree I want a woman just as tacky as me. Yeah, I like my women just a little on the trashy side.
