lyrics

Been trying hard to understand, days spent behind the carwash not dead Grew up on the south side, made friends with the east side, made love on the north side I tried my hardest just to get it right

Rita Rita Rita don’t you know that I need ya but you run like a cheater back home Rita Rita Rita - You’re the cheater

I never claim to be a wise man but I just try to be a good man Then you walk in the room girl, light me up with perfume girl, I would take you to the moon girl Hands holding hands to the end of the world

Rita Rita Rita don’t you know that I need ya but you run like a cheater back home Rita Rita Rita - You’re the cheater
