[instrumental intro]
[instrumental]
[verse 1]
I was out at the club on a fine summer's evening
A place called The Peddler, shooting pool
Saw a beautiful girl at the bar look my way
Her eyes like precious blue jewels
[verse 2]
I called to the bartender and sent her a drink
He gave it and pointed my way
She smiled with a nod as she lifted her glass
I put down my cue and made my way
[chorus]
I'm not really the guy that you want in a fight
I'm more of a lover by far
Don't tell me I should have known she was trouble for me
Just shut up while I play my guitar
[melodic easy guitar solo]
[verse 3]
I told her my name, she smiled and gave hers
We were definitely hitting it off
I asked her to dance and we got on the floor
When I heard a loud voice give a cough
[verse 4]
He said, "what makes you think you can dance with my girl
You skinny young son of a bitch?"
I suddenly knew I was in for a fight
And would end up this night in a ditch
[bridge]
I wish I could say that this kind of thing
Doesn't happen more often than you'd think
I get used all the time by women in bars
And the next thing I'm hit with a drink
[instrumental]
[verse 5]
I said, "hey my friend, I had no idea
That this lovely girl was attached
But as you can see when you look right at me
That a fight between us is mismatched"
[verse 6]
The girl walked to him and they started to talk
He was looking for a fight, he was primed
I used this distraction to head to the can
And out of that window I climbed
[chorus]
I'm not really the guy that you want in a fight
I'm more of a lover by far
Don't tell me I should have known she was trouble for me
Just shut up while I play my guitar
[virtuoso guitar solo]
[amazing virtuoso guitar solo]
[amazing virtuoso guitar solo]
[fade to end]
