Well, meet me by the river that goes nowhere.
Let me lay my sorry trip on you.
Won't you meet me by the river, little darling'?
I might just let you see my bad tattoo.
Well i was gonna bring you flowers, but i didn't.
It's the thought that counts and i think i'm a bit too broke.
But there's some change in my ashtray--maybe just enough to pay.
For a half pint of somethin', probably make us choke.
Chorus:
Well you know i'd rather not go and meet your family.
They'd probably send me back where i belong.
Don't want to hear about mr. right.
'cause he's out of town tonight.
Baby come and spend some time with mr. wrong.
I drive a one-eyed malibu without a muffler.
And a tape deck that works if you kick it hard enough.
And baby if you like to read, i've got some great pornography.
And a ten pound flashlight rolling in the trunk.
Chorus
Now, do you have a girlfriend and does she look as good as you?
Would she like to meet my brother?
He'll be out of jail in a month or two.
Chorus
Where i come from they call me mr. wrong.
