This was written after realizing that some of John Phillip's folky love songs were about drugs, not women.

lyrics

Once you've had Ivy you'll never go back
Once you've had Ivy, you'll never ever go back
She'll pull you down in the gutter
She'll love you so hard
You won't want no other
Leaving her is so hard

Ivy... let me tell you about my girl

And you'll never leave her unless she's leaving you
She's always seeing others
She's always telling you what the fuck to do
You won't eat or drink for nine days to be by her side
You'll laugh and you'll sleep 'til she tells you to cry
You'll hurt so bad you'll be worn to the bone
You'll wish you'd never been born

Ivy... let me tell you about my girl

Let me tell you a little more about my girl [*ramble*]

Ivy... let me tell you about my girl
