Slow Learner Lyrics

Did you ever hear the one about the woman

Who always learned her lessons much too slow

Stumbling over lessons never learned

And other things she ought to know

Oh

I heard she took the road most traveled

Never did quite make it there

And I'm betting she is weary

So if you see her

Won't you handle her with care

She is a dream for every cheat, heartbreaker, devil in disguise

Who wants to try and pick her pocket

While he looks into her eyes

She is so far in the ditch now

She refuses to back up

I think that either she is senseless or

Denial is her drug

I think I saw her hanging out down there

Pretending that's the spot she meant to be

And now I wonder if some people can't be taught

She is a dream for every cheat, heartbreaker, devil in disguise

Who wants to try and pick her pocket

While he looks into her eyes

Did you ever hear the one about the woman

Who always learned her lesson much too slow

Stumbling over all of her mistakes

And heartbreaks as she did go
