Feel No Shame |

Tell the story! |

Records Once |
|
I knew a love so true |
|
Every inch an artist |
|
An eye for detail, without equal |
|
And a face for trusting |
|
A country girl who knew the world |
|
But who's judgment was too reckless |
|
And when in turn she showed concern |
|
She wore it like a necklace |
|
So come on now, have yourself a good time |
|
Go out and share the blame |
|
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good |
|
I hope you feel no shame |
|
She could not see that sympathy |
|
Was no recompense |
|
A gift belated, motivated |
|
By a guilty conscience |
|
A hand that steals and a hand that heals |
|
The Anglo- |
|
Saxon attitude |
|
The hand that feeds the hand that needs |
|
Can expect no gratitude |
|
So come on now, have yourself a good time |
|
Go out and share the blame |
|
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good |
|
I hope you feel no shame ] |
|
Oh, what I'd give once more to live |
|
In childhood innocence |
|
The things men do with words so true |
|
Would seem much more like common sense |

|
Yet the homeland still is the stranger |
|
To my friends who make amends |
|
But in tryin' see no danger |
|
So come on, have yourself a good time |
|
Go out and share the blame |
|
Do what you should but if it makes you feel good |
|
I hope you feel no shame |
|
I hope you feel no shame |
|
I hope you feel no shame on you |
|
Yeah... yeah yeah yeah! |
|
Whoaaah! I hope, |
|
I hope you feel no shame |
