Well, meet me by the river that goes nowhere
And let me lay my sorry trip on you
Yeah, won't you meet me by the river, little darling'?
I might just let you see my bad tattoo

Well, I was gonna bring you flowers, but I didn't
It's the thought that counts and I think, I'm a bit too broke
But there's some change in my ashtray, maybe just enough to pay
For a half pint of somethin', probably make us choke

Well, you know I'd rather not go and meet your family
They'd probably send me back where I belong
Don't want to hear about your Mr Right 'cause he's out of town tonight
Baby, come and spend some time with Mr Wrong

I drive a one-eyed Malibu without a muffler
It's got a tape deck that works if you kick it hard enough
And baby if you like to read, I've got some great pornography
And a ten pound flashlight rolling in the trunk

Well, you know I'd rather not go and meet your family
They'd probably send me back where I belong
Don't want to hear about your Mr Right 'cause he's out of town tonight
Baby, come and spend some time with Mr Wrong

Now, do you have a girlfriend
And does she look as good as you?
Hey, would she like to meet my brother?
He'll be out of jail in a month or two

Well, you know I'd rather not go and meet your family
They'd probably send me back where I belong
Don't want to hear about your Mr Right 'cause he's out of town tonight
Baby come and spend some time with Mr Wrong

Where I come from they call me Mr Wrong
