| My name ain’t really Brenda © Leo Dean Brenda wanted big diamond rings and a red Cadillac, She wanted everything but the shirt of my back…. And I loved her so. I prayed everyday that we would have a good life. That she would settle down with me and make a good wife, But I knew it wasn’t so. So after two hard years and a barrel fulla tears, Beggin an a pleadin that fell on deaf ears, I knew it was the end, When she called me on the phone an said she wasn’t comin’ home, She said I think it time you were finally told the truth. She said my name ain’t really Brenda..it’s Billy. I guess you wondered.. why I ‘ve never slept with you. Yes my name ain’t really Brenda..it’s Billy, An I discovered today that I ain’t really gay, So I’ve packed my bags and I’m goin’ home to Sue. Well at first I cried, I damn nearly died, I thought of everything, even thought of suicide. Brenda..I don’t want you to go. You’ve been a lot of fun, but your daddy calls you son And Brenda..that’s more than I need to know. But a woman gotta do whatta mans gotta do An a mans gotta do whatta womans gotta do. An Brenda..which one are you? I’ve never seen your plumbing and you know that I’m becomin’ Somewhat suspicious about you. She said my name ain’t really Brenda..it’s Billy. I guess you wondered.. why I ‘ve never slept with you. Yes my name ain’t really Brenda..it’s Billy, An I discovered today that I ain’t really gay, So I’ve packed my bags and I’m goin’ home to Sue. Yes I’ve packed my bags and I’m goin’ home to sweet Sue. But there’s more: You see I’ve packed my bags too… an I just want you to know…. That Brenda ……..I’m going home to Joe! |
