Almost Illegal


ALMOST ILLEGAL
(R. Stewart/A. Taylor)

Yeah, I said yeah
I remember the first time
That I ever seen her face
I was standing by the drug store
Trying to save the human race

Took a raincheck on a blind date
To get her prescription filled
We had a short talk and a long walk
Through the lazy cottonfield

It was hot
She was cool and sultry
We made love
I was broke and lonely

She's wonderful, so beautiful
So delectable, she's mine
She's desirable, so lovable
And it's criminal, almost illegal

Well we woke up in a barnyard
When I heard a farmer shout
Get away, boy, from my daughter
When a shotgun rang out

We took off
She was right behind me
Ran like the wind
What a crazy lady

She's fabulous, so sensuous
She's marvelous, she's mine
I'm delirious, it's serious
Kinda dangerous, almost illegal

Bring it down now
We had a one child by the Springtime
and another on the way
I got a new life and a good wife
Ain't that amazing grace

It was hot
She was cool and sultry
We made love
I was broke and lonely

She's wonderful,
she's beautiful
She's desirable,
she's mine
I'm delirious,
she's serious
It's kinda dangerous, almost illegal

Wonderful, so beautiful
She's not a radical,
but she's mine
She's fabulous,
so sensuous
And it's marvelous, almost illegal
Beautiful and she's wonderful
So desirable, almost illegal

Rod Stewart
