Springfield Rick - Cold Feet Lyrics

He just turned seventeen when the moment came
He was standing on the corner in the pouring rain
She pulled up alongside and rolled the window down and said
Can I drive you in some part of town?
He swayed in beside her with a great big smile
The lady had class and stood out a mile
His heart was beating like a big bass drum
Thinking at last his time had come

He started talking fast, tryin' to loosen up
But it just felt kinda stupid so he shut up
She said "Don't think I'm fast, 'cos I'm really not"
But it's fever, in a while it was gettin' hot
She pulled in to the driveway of a big brown stone
He was jumpin' at the bed and in to husk his own
She said "my husband's workin', here we got all day"
But he couldn't believe it when he heard himself say

I'm gettin' cold feet, I'm gettin' cold feet, I'm gettin' cold feet
Lady don't you hear me talkin' to you, ain't there something that you can do
I'm so nervous, I just might shit through, I've got them cold cold feet

Well a couple of years on and our hero's grown
He's a professional musician with a band of his own
Hadn't had much luck with the girls that he meets
Some of them's gettin' him a case of treminal cold feet
He met a girl not too long ago, she thought she could change him
But it wasn't so
As soon as she meant she'd long-term romance
He went into that same old song and dance

I'm gettin' cold feet, c-c-c-c-c-cold feet, I'm gettin' cold feet
Mama don't you hear me talkin' to you
Lord ain't there something that you can do
I'm so nervous, I just might shit through
I've got cold, cold, cold, cold, said I got them cold, cold, cold, cold
Oh I've got them cold, cold, cold, cold, said I've got them cold, cold feet

He increased his quota of one night stands
It was some kind of a complex, you understand
He would treat 'em real mean, he was low down 'n' dirty
Now he's gotta make some changes 'cos he's nearly thirty
You see, he had a dream just the other night
He was standing in Gods under press of light
God said, "I'd like to let your life run its course
But you'll understand me havin' second thoughts"

I'm gettin' cold feet, c-c-c-c-c-cold feet
I'm gettin' cold feet, c-c-c-c-c-cold feet
Richard don't you hear me talkin' to you, I think you know what you have to do
You gotta make some changes

You got the cold, cold, cold, cold
You're gettin' pretty cold, cold, cold, cold
You're gettin' fridgy cold, cold, cold, cold
I said you got them cold, cold feet
