Oh, you know life gave him
Yeah, a red flower
It's perfume is as sweet as wine
But the taste is oh, so dry
Is it all in jest?
She said "be my guest"
She said "be my guest"
Could it be just a sin
The way I've been living?
I wish I was pure
I wish I wasn't so hard to please
Is it all in jest?
She said "be my guest" ah, ha
She said "honey, won't you be my guest now?"
I've been outside this world
I've seen both sides girl
I've been outside this world
I've seen both sides girl, huh
All the folks back home
They're living all alone
They're all living on the street
There ain't nobody there I'm gonna meet
Is it all in jest?
She said "be my guest" ah, ha
She said "be my guest"
