lyrics

I went down to the discotheque as she was holding court down on the floor
T. Rex played on the stereo all the young dudes shout for more
She walked down and looked at me and I was shaking like the leaves on a tree
She said honey you look so fine won’t you spend a little time on me

My jaw dropped to the floor I wanted to hear more I couldn’t tell if she was teasing me
And the chance I couldn’t miss so I tried to steal a kiss she pulled right away from me
She said “baby if you want my love you’ve gotta buy me a drink.”

I went down to the record shop just looking for a brand new beat
There she was standing all alone thumbing through the b’s and the c’s
I walked up and got real close and she said “long time no see
what you doing here pretty boy I think you owe me a drink”

So we started walking trash we were talking I pulled out my flask and gave her a drink
We walked right by the place where I first saw her face she looked right up at me
She said “baby if you want my love you’ve gotta buy me a drink.”

The night was nearly over and I was far from sober I turned around and all I could see
Was this little vixen on someone else she’s kissing the words I heard I couldn’t believe
When she said “baby if you want my love ”She said “baby if you want my love”
She said “baby if you want my love you’ve gotta buy me a drink.”
