Fend It Off

He intermitted honesty by adding up his dignity

He put it in his pocketbook a wooden nickel in his sheath

That's why we say

Love fend it off

We say

Love fend it off

He'd leave her heart in misery

She'd leave it in his company

If ever he would relegate

A love for her to imitate

We say

Love fend it off

That's why we say

Love fend it off

You know we say

Love fend it off

Fend it off

I've fallen from grace

In a million disguises

All over this game

There's a lot to be said

For the women who fled me

All gone you're still stained
