Drunk On The Moon |
| Tight slack clad girls on the graveyard shift |
| 'Neath the cement stroll, catch the midnight drift |
| Cigar chewing Charlie in that newspaper nest |
| Grifting hot horse tips on who’s running the best |
| And I’m blinded by the neon |
| Don’t try and change my tune |
| Cause I thought I heard a saxophone |
| I’m drunk on the moon |
| And the moon’s a silver slipper, it’s pouring champagne stars |
| And Broadway’s like a serpent pulling shiny top-down cars |
| Laramer is teeming with that undulating beat |
| And some Bonneville is screaming, it’s way wilder down the street |
| And I’m blinded by the neon |
| Don’t try and change my tune |
| I thought I heard a saxophone |
| I’m drunk on the moon |
| Hearts flutter and race, the moon’s on the wane |
| Tarts mutter their dream hopes the night will ordain |
| Come schemers and dancers, cherry delight |
| As a Cleveland-bound Greyhound, and it cuts through the night |
| And I’ve hawked all my yesterdays |
| Don’t try and change my tune |
| Cause I thought I heard a saxophone |
| I’m drunk on the moon |
