I've been waiting for you for hours, babe   And you still ain't here   Waiting, waiting, hanging on the phone   It feels like a hundred years      You always keep me hanging on   Driving me crazy all the time   But when it comes down to fooling around   You're the one that rings my chimes      Come on now, honey, spend my money   Take me around the world   All this time, out of my mind   A really nasty girl      English rose, a crown of thorns   I hope you're staying around   English rose, a long, long time   Before you wear me down      The first time and it was amazing   But the next time's gonna be hell   I know your momma thinks   You're a sweet young thing   But she don't know you too well      Come on now, lover, don't run for cover   You're the one I deserve   All this time, way out of line   A great nasty girl      English rose, a crown of thorns   Don't you let me down   English rose, a long, long time   You should be wearing the crown      A long time we been lovers   A long time doing that stuff   A long time I been waiting here   But I still ain't had enough      Come on now, woman, hold on, I'm coming   I'm just a bundle of nerves   Stay right there, you ain't going nowhere   Be my nasty girl      Come on now, baby, drive me crazy   Take me around the world   You're so fine, just making time   A real nasty girl      English rose, a crown of thorns   You better stick around   English rose, a long, long time   You'll never wear me down      English rose, English rose, growing wild   I like to keep you unwound   English rose, gonna be a long, long time   Before you wear me down
