She walked in, I tipped my hat
|
She said, ‘boy don’t you look at me like that’
|
|
And I said, ‘no, you know I got no game’
|
‘Oh, but you can love me just the same’
|
|
She said ‘boy, my mama told me all about boys like you’
|
‘You talk so sweet then you leave me blue’
|
‘Is that what you think you’re about to do’
|
|
I said, ‘no, I’m just sittin’ here singing a song’
|
‘Don’t want to do nobody wrong’
|
‘You’ll find out before long’
|
|
Tonight’s just all about having fun
|
Maybe I’ll see you when it’s done
|
We’ll talk about things that are making you blue
|
|
Till there’s one thing left to do
|
|
She sat down right in front of the stage
|
And everybody was so amazed
|
|
Put a cigarette right between her lips
|
Before she could light it, the sax man shot right
|
from the hip
|
|
She said, ‘no, my mama told me all about boys like him’
|
‘Walking around with that sly grin’
|
‘All he wants is a night of sin’
|
|
Tonight’s just all about having fun
|
Maybe I’ll see you when it’s done
|
We’ll talk about what’s been making you blue
|
|
Till there’s one thing left to do
|
|
And I just need some conversation
|
And I won’t tell too many lies
|
|
I know it’s a sticky situation
|
But I think I saw that twinkle in your eyes
|
|
Tonight’s just all about having fun
|
Maybe I’ll see you when it’s done
|
We’ll talk about what’s making you blue
|
|
Till there’s one thing left to do
|
|
Well we played till the police closed us down
|
Drank our drinks till the morning came around
|
|
She said, ‘boy, everything you told me was true’
|
‘I forgot about my blues, what are you going to do’
|
|
I said, ‘my mama told me all about girls like you’
|
‘Talk a big game and then you leave me blue’
|
‘Is that what you think you’re about to do’
|
|
She said, ‘no, I never met a man that’s quite like you’
|
‘I think I’m gonna let my mama do the worrying too’
|
‘What you gonna do’
|
|
You know tonight was so much fun
|
And I hate to see it’s done
|
I forgot all my blues
|
|
Now there’s one thing left to do
|
