Bilingual
Make me a deal and make it straight
All signed and sealed, I'll take it
To Robert E. Lee I'll show it
I hope and pray he don't blow it, 'cause
We've been around a long time
Just to try, to try, to try to make make the big time
Take me on a roller coaster
Take me for an airplane ride
Take me for a six-day wonder
But don't you throw, don't you throw my pride aside besides
What's real and make believe?
Baby Jane's in Acapulco, we are flying down to Rio
ย
Throw me a line, I'm sinking fast
Clutching at straws, can't make it
Havana sounds, we're trying
A hard edge, a hipster jiving, oh
Last picture show is down the drive-in
You're so sheer, you're so chic, teenage rebel of the week
Flavors of the mountain streamline
Midnight blue casino floors
Dance the Cha-Cha through 'til sunrise
Opens up exclusive doors, oh, wow!
Just like flamingoes look the same
So me and you, just we two, got to search for something new
ย
Far beyond the pale horizon
Some place near the desert strand
And where my Studebaker takes me
That's where I'll make my stand, but wait!
Can't you see her Holzer mane?
What's her name?
Virginia Plain
