Spike Heel

She likes spike heels and a steel toe
A stick shift and a scandal
A stiff drink and a voh-dee-oh-doh
She’ll get you too hot to handle

She’s a hip chick
got real thick lips
fake eyelashes and licorice whips
squeaky clean teeth and a freaky mystique
stay one night you can’t walk for a week

I heard she worked you over down to your last nerve
you tried to play it straight but she threw you a curve
and just when you were thinking of giving her the boot
she showed up for supper in her birthday suit

cuz she likes spike heels and a steel toe
stick shift and a scandal
stiff drink and a voh-dee-oh-doh
she’ll get you too hot to handle
she’ll get you too hot to handle
