Story Behind The Song

Who hasn't been there?

Song Description

This song focuses on the idea of a woman claiming to be this ideal, "classy lady", but truly being a monster in the way she treats those around her. She is impossible to please. The rude and simple guitar riffs of this song make it immediately a jam to anyone listening and who can share in the frustration, for both sexes.

Lyrics

Pearl Ring

She said she wants a pearl ring,
She said that it's the cheapest way that she can go and finally get married
'Cuz isn't that what every nice girl needs?
But don't mistake her for a prom queen
Don't want no quarter back, she doesn't want no James Dean
No cigarettes in the shirt sleeves, she wants a man who could live long keeping his lungs clean

Well she keeps 'em coming back for more, whatever keeps 'em coming through that door
Now every time I gotta rub my eyes, yeah I gotta rub 'em twice 'cuz a classy lady's hard to come by

Well she's hard to come by, yeah she was born without a heart and that's a matter of fact
She'll put her man on the front line, and have the other soldiers all take a few steps back
I hear them scream, hear them yell how that Jezebel took them down
Oh what to do with all the rubble and ruin that she left on the ground

Well she keeps 'em coming back for more, whatever keeps 'em coming through that door
Now every time I gotta rub my eyes, yeah I gotta rub 'em twice 'cuz a classy lady's hard to come by

You couldn't keep it together, yeah you found your new king
Oh what to do what to do what to do with all the clean things
You went and clipped all my feathers, I took you under my wing
Oh what to do what to do when you do all of those mean things

Well she keeps 'em coming back for more, whatever keeps 'em coming through that door
Now every time I gotta rub my eyes, yeah I gotta rub 'em twice 'cuz a classy lady's hard to come by
