Alright for an Hour (2009 Remaster) Songtext
von Rod Stewart

Oh yeah
Oh

Oh, didn′t I mess around like everybody did?
I said, "Woman, you're foolin′ around with a man that just don't fit"
I said, "I'd better get along before I get right under your skin"
Remember the song, wasn′t it fun? ′Cause it was just one of those things

But it was alright for an hour
It was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last 'til the weekend
And I packed my bags and moved right away

I said goodbye money, I don′t owe no alimony
I paid my dues and payroll cues, gonna leave it all up to you
I'll take my dog and my car, the best friends I′ve found so far
And I'll keep goin′ with the mornin' sun, singin' the same old song

But it was alright for an hour
It was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last ′til the weekend
And I packed my bags and moved right away, right away, right away


Well, I guess you needed somebody
To open each and every door
With a large amount in the Swiss account
To give you thrills and nothing more
But my Volkswagen is hardly a custom built Ferrari
You want first class, but I pump gas
So I′ll get on out of your way

But it was alright for an hour
And it was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last 'til the weekend
And I packed my bags and moved right away

But it was alright for an hour
And it was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last ′til the weekend
When I packed my bags and I moved right away

It was alright for an hour
It was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last 'til the weekend
When I packed my bags and moved right

It was alright for an hour
It was alright for a day
But it did not last, it did not last ′til the weekend
And I packed my bags and I moved right away, right away, right away

I'm gonna go now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
