Commercial Affection Songtext
von Mel Tillis

I was lonely, I guess, the night that we met
In a tavern down on old Broadway
And there were tears in her eyes and she whispered a sigh
"Stranger, please take me out of here"


But it was only commercial affection
′Cause a fool and his money will part
Yes, it was only commercial affection
But she walked away with my heart

I stood in disbelief as she hurried off to meet
Another fool down on old Broadway
Now many nights have come and gone, still the echo lingers on
"Stranger, please take me out of here"

But it was only commercial affection
'Cause a fool and his money will part
Yes, it was only commercial affection
But she walked away with my heart
