Well there's a bar in San Franciso called the Swingin' Uptown Tavern
|
Where I carved myself a niche and that ain't all
|
30 swinging California women wore out 30 switchblade knives
|
Carving my initials on the wall
|
|
And in that Swingin' Uptown Tavern underneath the bar' a long brass rail
|
Them 30 cuties parked their nylons on
|
While the mirror on the wall reflecting 30 sniffing noses
|
Under 60 red eyes crying 'cause I'm gone
|
|
And every night in San Francisco 30 California women
|
Park on Lover's Lane to sit and reminisce
|
They're not looking for a man 'cause ever since the night I kissed them
|
Not a single one of them has come un-kissed
|
|
Now in that Swinging Uptown Tavern there's a story being told
|
About a swinging gal from Nashville Tennessee
|
She came tearing up the bar just like a Tennessee tornado
|
And the one she wound up tearing up was me
|
|
And I left 30 California women staring at the door
|
And talking to themselves and wondering what went wrong
|
Watching this old California whirlwind with this Tennessee tornado
|
Off and running, blowing strong
|
|
And now tonight way down in Nashville on a quiet little side street
|
In a peaceful home I built for her and me
|
There's a California whirlwind and a Tennessee tornado
|
Loving up a storm in Nashville Tennessee
|
