I Should've Known Better

by Tony Whitaker

I Should’ve Known Better
looking into those
Lyin’ Eyes
sensing the
Shape of Things
to come
too late my
Dark-eyed Cajun Woman
Laughing
now
Like a Rolling Stone
Tuesday’s Gone
with the wind

I lost a
Piece of My Heart
In My Time of Dying
but tired of
Living In the Past
Close To the Edge
feeling the need to
Even It Up
I came to my senses
knowing its
Not My Cross To Bear
in Time
Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool

As I stop at the
Crossroads
in my
Little Deuce Coup
I get these
Good Vibrations
California Dreamin’
on a
Tuesday Afternoon

Then
Another Day
Just Like A Woman
I get your message
with a cry in your voice

“Call Me”

Who’s Sorry Now
Evil Woman

In the Beginning
I felt I was a
Lucky Man
and though
Still…You Turn Me On
Bye, Bye Love
Because
The Times They Are A Changin’
Good Riddance
Go Your Own Way
Ebony Eyes
be that
Distant Lover
Where the Boy’s Are
living your
Nights In White Satin
looking for
Mr. Fantasy
under a
Paper Sun
that shines upon
a
Gold Dust Woman
