From the recording Things I Wish I’d Never Seen

Lyrics

VERSE
She wants no difference in before and after
So she was tryin’ to make it all happen faster
’Cause she was needin’ to avoid the disaster
Of not having a new name and address

VERSE
Now you see, she was freshly divorced
Soon to have no doors or floors
So she bought a dress par for the course
She would be an irresistible force

CHORUS
Yeah, she got a new name and a dress
But if you really wanta know, she may as well confess
It wasn’t the dress that caused her success
It had more to do, don’t you see, with her tender caress

VERSE
Now she met him at just the right time
His wife had just left him; took most of his dimes
But his new love didn’t know his financial affairs
This wasn’t the time about that to care

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
She had no misgivings; she’d loved them all
But, at the same time
She knew what to do to survive the long haul

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Yeah, she just got a new name and address
