Sangtekst: Van Halen. Women And Children First. In a Simple Rhyme.

Well, back in the past when I was treated so coldly
My love life was a darn disgrace
Needed someone to love and hold me
That's one of the reasons that I was outta place

So, this is love? Well, she finally kissed me
Had me all worked up inside
I wanted love but Cupid missed me
She, up and left and I almost died

But I was young and I was far from lonely
I been that way for a long, long year
Needed a girl to call my one and only
Is that you?

You think you got the interest
Come on and take the time
'Cause you know, I wanna be
Yours in a simple rhyme

Well, ain't life grand when ya finally hit it?
I'm always a sucker for a real good time
Woke up in life, found I almost missed it
Ain't I glad that love is blind

But I was young and I was far too crazy
Been that way for a long, long time
Needed a girl but I was just too lazy
Now that I've found you

You think you got the interest
Come on and take the time
I'm gonna be yours
In a simple rhyme, rhyme

And she made the mountains sing
Birds against an icy sky
And I heard bells ringing
I think I heard an Angel sigh

And she said, "There'll be times
There will be times"
You're gonna hear the Angels singing
You're gonna hear the Angels sing
They'll say, ?Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh?

You think you got the interest
Come on and take the time
I'm gonna be yours
In a simple rhyme, rhyme, rhyme
