| Mama’s having problems, always comes to me |
| Your daddy’s been a drinker since nineteen forty-three |
| They tell you I’m a loser cause I like being free |
| The truth is in the mirror, it’s what they never see |
| I said, yeah, a long time ago |
| They tried to tell me, son, keep our daughter home |
| I said no, no, no, no |
| Now, I don’t mind them saying |
| That you should be praying for me |
| A fast taker |
| Right here’s where I’m staying |
| Life’s a game I play for keeps |
| Fast taker, bed breaker |
| Love maker, take it away |
| Only sixteen, a woman, not a girl |
| Old enough for a trip around the world |
| Pick you up on Friday when your daddy goes to sleep |
| Bring you back on Sunday |
| When he’s watching Billy Graham on TV |
| He won’t see me |
| Now, do it right with music |
| Then you’ll learn how to use it |
| All night, a fast taker |
| Right here’s where I’m staying |
| Life’s a game I play for keeps |
| Fast taker, bed breaker |
| Love maker, take it away |
| Now, I don’t mind them saying |
| That you should be praying for me |
| A fast taker |
| Right here’s where I’m staying |
| Life’s a game I play for keeps |
| Fast taker, bed breaker |
| Love maker, take it away |
