Change His Ways - Robert Palmer

Deep in the jungle, he lost her favor

Another gambit, he would have made her

He gave her perfume, she used his razor

And decided to change his ways

She was a gambler, he didn’t blame her

She had a dimple in her favor

At the last minute, he always chased her

And decided to change his ways

Life would be so much more exciting

If we could live it day to day

We could at least adjust the lighting

To illuminate the way

He took the loving that she’d been craving

She took advantage of the saving;

It almost ruin her reputation

And decided to change his ways

She wasn’t crazy 'bout his behavior

She read it somewhere in the paper

He was seducing a ballerina

And decided to change his ways
