Never Take The Place Of You by NRBQ Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1980

[Verse 1]
I know she's got a big long shiny car
I know she's famous and that she's a star
But there's one thing that she can never do
She'll never take the place of you

[Verse 2]
I like the good times and I like the bread
But don't you worry, it won't go to my head
'Cause there's one thing that she can never do
She'll never take the place of you

[Chorus]
And though I'm very far away, you're always on my mind
In all the world a girl like you is very hard to find
So tell me that you want me back and I'll be cool
I didn't realize that I was breakin' all the rules

[Verse 3]
Of all the places that I've been today
Right here with you is where I want to stay
'Cause there's one thing that she can never do
She'll never take the place of you
[Chorus]
And though I'm very far away, you're always on my mind
In all the world a girl like you is very hard to find
So tell me that you want me back and I'll be cool
I didn't realize that I was breakin' all the rules

[Verse 4]
You probably think that I have got it made
And that my memories of you will fade
But there's one thing that she can never do
She'll never take the place of you, no
She'll never take the place of you, god
She'll never take the place of you

[Outro]
(Never) never (never) never, she'll never take the place of
(Never) never (never) never, she'll never take the place of
