EmMy (022000@1)old man is a bad man but
I can't deny the way he holds my hand
  EmAnd (022000@1)he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
He doesn't mind I have an LA crass way about me
He loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart

(Em)
Swimming pool glimmering darling
White bikini off with my red nail polish
Watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples
You sit sippin' on your black Cristal, yeah

(Em)
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Be a good baby, do what I want
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Give me them gold coins, gimme them coins

EmAnd (022000@1)I'm off to the races, cases
of Bacardi chasers, chasin' me all over town
                      CCuz (x32010@1)he knows I'm wasted, facing
Time again on Riker's Island and I won't get out

                CI'm (x32010@1)your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
          EmReady (022000@1)for you

EmMy (022000@1)old man is a tough man but
He got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
And he shows me, he knows me
Every inch of my tar black soul
He doesn't mind I have a flat broke down life
In fact he says he thinks it's why he might like about me
Admires me, the way I roll like a Rolling Stone

(Em)
Likes to watch me in the glass room bathroom, Chateau Marmont
Slippin' on my red dress, puttin' on my makeup
Glass room perfume Cognac lilac fume
Says it feels like heaven to him

(Em)
Light of his life, fire of his loins
Keep me forever, tell me you own me
Light of your life, fire of your loins
Tell me you own me, gimme them coins

(Em)
