I'm tired of conversation and the state of things I need some relaxation only night life brings And it's time that I found me a squeeze One that can bring me down to my knees Seasoned and easy to please Or just to make my way to crazy company
Pasted to the corner of the cabaret And shattered by the echo of my only play Now Delilah's been hitting me hard But her lovin' always costs half a yard Why is it artists always know who they are, oh yeah
I know the sister on the dance floor Her price and who she used to go for Old squares and millionaires And I'm still lookin' like a renegade From every street scene I've ever made With my eyes transfixed to a pair of hips Oh, who's that heavy reachin' down for his blade So I grabbed my gin and I ran like the wind Man, it was curtains if I would have stayed, yeah
Now I'm makin' for the alley like a wounded stray There's a blue coat leanin' on my Chevrolet And it's time that I questioned my style Or if this pastime is really worthwhile 'Cause even dreary's got me beat by a mile And no amount of faith can save me now
All right
No end to aggravation non-stop No friends just faces in a backdrop No score, condition red
I see my chance in some tight brown pants A little skinny but she's lookin' all right So I'll make my pinch, God knows she's a cinch But I'm feelin' just a little uptight Oh, landslide pride won't you take a ride I'm all alone and it's Saturday night All right
