Status Quo Break The Rules
Spent a long, long evening in a honky-tonk bar Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car I asked no questions, got no lies I walked off with her, I didn’t want any ties And I knew it wasn’t right But everybody has to sometimes break the rules Took me down on the highway doin’ too may miles an hour By that way she motor-talked we might have made the Eiffel Tower She stopped her motor by her own front door I knew she’d done it so many times before And I was offered the floor But everybody has to sometimes break the rules I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down ‘Cos I did not know if I was in or out of town Then I saw the face from the night before Purse was empty and lying there on the floor But like I told you before That everybody has to sometimes break the rules Spent a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
