I ain’t looking for some fashion beauty
That’s fine for fantasy but not in real life
I want a woman who won’t crumble apart
Not just a girl for a whirl on a Saturday night
chorus:
I’ve been around
I don’t mind if you rock the boat
You don’t have to sugar coat
It’s O.K. about those sour notes
I’ve been around
I’ve played the lover and I’ve played the fool
I’ve learned a thing or two from the hard knock school
You tell your story when you show your cards
Well, I ‘ve got scars on my hands, scars on my heart
chorus:
I’ve been around
I don’t mind if you rock the boat
You don’t have to sugar coat
It’s O.K. about those sour notes
I’ve been around
bridge:
I can deal with rough edges
I can handle the truth
I am looking for love
I think life is like a circus arcade
You toss the rings just like some choices you’ve made
Darling, you don’t have hide where you’ve been
I have fallen for love and fallen for sin
chorus:
I’ve been around
I don’t mind if you rock the boat
You don’t have to sugar coat
It’s O.K. about those sour notes
I’ve been around
