Fifty Dollar Love Affair |
| Oh the romance of these harbour towns |
| Lights that shimmer on canals |
| And in the bottom of your glass |
| The air buzzing with foreign tongues |
| And the occasional cries |
| Of sailors, tramps and rock 'n' rollers. |
| . |
| (Hey babe you look so hot tonight |
| Hey come over here I’ll treat you right) |
| 'Cause. |
| . |
| A man’s a man all right |
| Just like any other man |
| He’ll search the town tonight |
| For a fifty dollar love affair |
| And another taste of cheap delight |
| Street food sizzling outside |
| Washed down with the local poison |
| These back alleys with their pinkish lights |
| And the occasional cries |
| Of smugglers, bums and credit card holders. |
| . |
| (Hey babe I feel so good tonight |
| I got shore leave and I sure ain’t leavin' here till I prove that. |
| . |
| .) |
| A man’s a man all right |
| Just like any other man |
| He’ll search the town tonight |
| For a fifty dollar love affair |
