Could have been alright, could have been here tonight

Could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady

I could have been alright, I could have been here tonight

Could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady



They all need you, to make love to

When you awake, you find them on the bed, lyin' beside you

They all love you, you're a good girl

And I ain't surprised, when you realize, just where you're goin' to



You could have been alright, you could have been here tonight

You could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady

It could have been alright, you could have been here tonight

Could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady



If I told you, where you're goin' to

You'd laugh in my face, say I'm out of place, mind your business

And they all want you, to make love to

It's ashame, the fate of the game, the way it delights you



You could have been alright, you could have been here tonight

You could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady

It could have been alright, you could have been here tonight

Could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady

Na, na na na na, na, na, na na na na, na

Na, na na na na, na, na na

Na, na na na na, na, na, na na na na, na

Na, na na na na, na, na na

Alright, you could have been here tonight

You could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady

It could have been alright, you could have been here tonight

Could have been sweet as wine, you could have been a lady
