No Win, No Lose Situation

Girl song from my Shania period.

I cut my losses up in Louisville
And I headed back to the south
That sweet-talking man nearly broke my will
But he was nothing but mouth
He turned my head when he spoke of marriage
But I declined his invitation
It's a No Win, No Lose Situation

Well, it was going good for a little while
I thought I had something to gain
Then I caught him out with an old girl friend
I had to use restraint
The stakes were high, but I broke even
It was coffee and conversation
It's a No Win, No Lose Situation

I put my Z28 on I-65
Turned on the radio
Chely was singing "Shut Up And Drive"
And Georgia was calling me home

I taught that gambler up in Louisville
You don't hit on this Southern Belle
That two-timing fool was moving in for the kill
But he can go to hell
I'm going home with my virtue intact
Much to his frustration
It's a No Win, No Lose Situation

I put my Z28 on I-65
Turned on the radio
Chely was singing "Shut Up And Drive"
And Georgia was calling me home

I taught that gambler up in Louisville
You don't hit on this Southern Belle
That two-timing fool was moving in for the kill
But he can go to hell
I'm going home with my virtue intact
Much to his frustration
It's a No-Win, No-Lose Situation
It's a No-Win, No-Lose Situation

Really enjoyed this bud, reads easy and the lyrics are impressive

Thank you, my friend.

Ready-made for the Dixie Chicks! So colorful and rich without being overdone (not that I've ever read anything overdone by J.C.!) With country being such a big industry, I could hear a number of Nashville Queens belting this one out! Third time I've said it recently, but true again: Current in its theme and imagery. (Except sorry, I don't know Chely...)

Great catch phase,"It's a No-Win,No-Lose Situation"!

Thanks guys!

I like your work man. It's all very self explanatory. While I'm one personally for imagery and manipulations of words and such, I really appreciate the other end of the spectrum. You do it very well and it's been great reading your stuff.
