A Bit On The Side

You just arrived in the city, Charlene
Now you're working the underground scene
And you've been getting bolder
Now you're leaning on my shoulder

I can guess how you want things to be
Climbing up this old money tree
Well, that won't do it for you or me
No, no

I don't want no left or right
I want up 'n' down
And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

Well, it's none of my business, Charlene
Though I couldn't help but notice, my darlin'
The make-up don't quite cover up the early evening shadow
On your enigmatic jawline, Charlene
I have to say it's all right by me
I don't care which way you lean

But I don't want no left or right
I want front 'n' back
And a little bit o' lovin' on the side, yeah

It made me pause to consider, Charlene
You may not be much different to me
You got to earn a living with the tools that you were given
Don't we all?
If you see what I mean
Everybody follows a dream
But to beat the street, ah, we've got to eat, or so it seems

I don't want no left or right
I want in 'n' out
And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

Oh, I have to say it's all right by me
I don't care which way you lean
To beat the street, ah, we've got to eat, or so it seems

I don't want no left or right
I want in 'n' out
Back 'n' front
Up 'n' down
Oh, oh
And a little bit o' lovin' on the side
