REO Speedwagon - Tough Guys Lyrics






She doesn't like the tough guys.
They think that they can do anything they please.
But they're gonna get a surprise,
When she brings them to their knees.
'Cus she doesn't like the rough guys.
They act like they can have any girl they choose.
They've got tricks, but my baby got wise,
So in case you haven't heard the news,

She doesn't like the tough guys.
She doesn't like the rough guys.
So find some one you own size,
'Cus she's not afraid of you.

She doesn't like the tough guys.
She thinks that they've got brains all where they sit.
They think they're full of fire,
She thinks they're full of shit.

She doesn't like the tough guys.
She says she's heard enough lies.
She's gonna call your bluff, guys.
And you better believe it's true.

She don't like you.

    Our band was headed to Myrtle Beach for Sun Fun Festival and one girl played this nonstop on cassette over and over for 5 hours. Later, at the motel, that tape disappeared. I had nothing to do with that. (as I try to look innocent). But dang, I loved the song the first one or two times she played it. This is the first time I've actually listened to it again.
