Billy Joel - Zanzibar |
Zanzibar
Billy Joel Ali dances and the audience applauds Though he's beathed in sweat he hasn't lost his style Ali don't you go downtown You gave away another round for free Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar But the waitress always serves a secret smile She's gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me She's waiting out in Shantytown I've got a jazz guitar I've got the old man's car, I've got a tab at Zanzibar Tonight that's where I'll be Rose, he knows he's such a credit to the game But the Yankees grab the headlines every time Melodrama's so much fun Me, I'm trying just to get to second base In black and white for everyone to see She's gonna give the go ahead The inning isn't over yet for me And I'd steal it if she only gave the sign Tell the waitress I'll come back to Zanzibar I'll be hiding inthe darkness with my beer. She's gonna pull the curtaains down for me, for me She's waiting out in Shantytown |
