Silver-tounged Devil

She don't like him talkin' to blondes
Girls in town ain't use to men like John
Another waitress sets him up for free
Ain't that good lookin' but he sure knows what to say
Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne
When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely like a leaving train
Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne
When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely
You're one silver-tounged devil
Next door neighbors since we were nine
This old mill town is in a sharp decline
Talks about leavin' almost every day
It's the thing of the season and there's no reason to stay
Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne

When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely like a leaving train

Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne
When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely
You're one silver-tounged devil
Sometimes he'd talk about a fantasy
To go off and become a famous guy
His girlfriend went and had the baby
and how it would just break his heart
Now to leave them behind
Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne
When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely like a leaving train
Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo
and pink champagne
When he speaks his heart he sounds so lonely
You're one silver-tounged
You're one silver-tounged
You're one silver-tounged devil
