Lyrics
Wedding Band Tan
Jody understood, it wasn’t any good, she felt such pain
Starin’ at the fire she was burned-out, fed up and lonely
The man that she had wed, was playin’ her instead; so insane
The nasty things he said, would smolder in her head real slowly
So she took a plane to Rio on a rainy night
Flipped off her ring, fixed her skirt real tight and said
Look at my hand, I got a white band
In the middle of my lonely ring finger
Got a wedding band tan
Been cold at homeand I’m deservin’ some fun
Cause life’s too short to suffertill my time is done
I’m feelin’ goodtonite but my ring’s too tight
I’ve got a wedding band tan
Check out my tan, man
Jody kept her pride like a rainbow deep inside the pouring rain
Clinging to his arm while his eyes would wander sideways
But when your heart’s on ice and he betrays you twice, you just can’t stay, This girl’s takin a sunny, solo holiday
Think I’ll lie on the beach, wait for a wave ‘cause
A chance at real love is what I crave
Look at my hand, I got a white band
In the middle of my little ring finger
Got a wedding band tan
Been cold at home so now I’m gettin’ some sun
It hurt real bad to say it but I told him we’re done
I’m gonna’ dance tonite and my ring’s too tight
I’ve got a wedding band tan
Check out my tan, oh man
Music from the DJ makes a joyful noise
Exhilaration; I have made my choice
“I do” means forever; that I believe
But you can’t be a victim unless you choose to be
Look at my hand, I got a white band
In the middle of my lonely ring finger
Got a wedding band tan
Hey hey now, look at my hand, I got a white band
In the middle of my little ring finger
Got a wedding band tan
I’m startin’ out tonite –oooo and the stars are so bright
Uh-oh, I’ve got a wedding band tan
I’m gonna dance tonight
Ad lib and out
