Jackie Stewart - World's Champion Lover

You thought you were the world's champion lover
That no one else could hold a light to you
But when you were giving all those other girls a demonstration
I found another twice as good as you

I guess I never would have known the difference
If you would have stayed at home where you belong
But you wouldn't lay your gloves aside; you had to go down swinging
So now I'm doing some swinging of my own

You thought that I'd just wait around
To pick you up when you went down
But honey, that ain't in my book of rules

Somebody else has won the bout
And you have done been counted out
So go and find yourself another fool

You had a chance to quit while you were winning
But you just wouldn't throw the towel in
If you had just been satisfied with what you had at home
You wouldn't have lost your title in the end

There ain't no use in crying for a comeback
You should have known that someday you would lose
There's a brand new champion in the ring and he's still going strong
And you ain't man enough to fill his shoes
You thought that I'd just wait around
To pick you up when you went down
But I ain't quite the fool you took me for

Somebody else has won the bout
And you have done been counted out
And a has-been champ just ain't worth waiting for

And a has-been champ can't be a champ no more
And a has-been champ can't be a champ no more
And a has-been champ can't be a champ no more
