Soi Cowboy by The Getaway People Lyrics

She was the apple of her father's eye
Nobody told her expectations were way too high
Paying her dues in a sleazy go-go bar
It's like butterfly stuck in a jar

Soi cowboy with a pocket full of dollars
Cheap lipstick on his collar but he don't care
She's just a Thai girl with a head full of dreams
But lemme tell you, honey, that nothing's what it seems

Oh no, she's just a Thai girl
That's not all she is
She's just a Thai girl

He said he'd make of her an honest girl
That they would get away and see the world some day
But there's a problem with a pearls and grand [unverified]
Well, at the oyster there's a grain of sand

Soi cowboy with a pocket full of dollars
Cheap lipstick on his collar but he don't care
She's just a Thai girl with a head full of dreams
But lemme tell you, honey, that nothing's what it seems
Oh no, she's just a Thai girl
That's all she is
She's just a Thai girl
[Unverified]

If you think that it is true love he is looking for, looking for
Can't you see that the only thing he'll ever be, ever be?

A soi cowboy with a pocket full of dollars
Cheap lipstick on his collar but he don't care
She's just a Thai girl with a head full of dreams
But lemme tell you, honey, that nothing's what it seems

Soi cowboy with a pocket full of dollars
Cheap lipstick on his collar but he don't care
She's just a Thai girl with a head full of dreams
But lemme tell you, honey, let me tell you, honey
Let me tell you, honey, nothing's what it seems
