  my old man is a bad man but
  i can't deny the way he holds my hand
  and he grabs me, he has me by my heart
  he doesn't mind i have a las vegas past
  he doesn't mind i have an la crass way about me
  he loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart
  
  swimming pool glimmering darling
  white bikini off with my red nail polish
  watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples
  you sit sippin' on your black crystal, yeah
  
  light of my life, fire of my loins
  be a good baby, do what i want
  light of my life, fire of my loins
  give me them gold coins, gimme them coins
  
  and i'm off to the races, cases
  of bacardi chasers, chasin' me all over town
  cause he knows i'm wasted, facing
  time again on riker's island and i won't get out
  because i'm crazy, baby i need you to come here and save me
  i'm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
  kiss me on my open mouth
  ready for you
  
  my old man is a tough man but
  he got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
  and he shows me, he knows me
  every inch of my tar black soul
  he doesn't mind i have a flat broke down life
  in fact he says he thinks it's why he might like about me
  admires me, the way i roll like a rolling stone
  
  likes to watch me in the glass room bathroom, chateau marmont
  slippin' on my red dress, puttin' on my makeup
  glass room perfume cognac lilac fume
  says it feels like heaven to him
  
  light of his life, fire of his loins
  keep me forever, tell me you own me
  light of your life, fire of your loins
  tell me you own me, gimme them coins
  
  and i'm off to the races, cases
  of bacardi chasers, chasin' me all over town
  cause he knows i'm wasted, facing
  time again on riker's island and i won't get out
  because i'm crazy, baby i need you to come here and save me
  i'm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
  kiss me on my open mouth
  
  now i'm off to the races, laces
  leather on my waist is tight and i am fallin' down
  i can see your face is shameless, trippy on his basement
  love you but i'm going down
  god i'm so crazy, baby, i'm sorry that i'm misbehaving
  i'm your little harlet, starlet, queen of coney island
  raising hell all over town
  sorry 'bout it
  
  my old man is a thief and i'm gonna stay and pray with him 'til the end
  but i trust in the decision of the lord to watch over us
  take him when he may, if he may
  i'm not afraid to say that i'd die without him
  who else is gonna put up with me this way?
  i need you, i breathe you, i never leave you
  they would rue the day i was alone without you
  you're lying with your gold chain on, cigar hanging from your lips
  i said "hon' you never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man."
  
  and we're off to the races, places
  ready, set the gate is down and now we're goin' in
  to las vegas pay us, casino oasis, honey it is time to spin
  boy you're so crazy, baby, i love you forever not maybe
  you are my one true love, you are my one true love
