Kevin Ayers - Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes lyrics
Your rating:
I walked into this bar And the man refused; He said"we don't serve strangers In blue suede shoes; We don't give creditand We don't give way-- We have to think about what the people might say.. Uhyou know what I mean..." I said"sureman" Ohhe gave me a smile that was sickly and wet And I offered him one of my cigarettes. He took itafraid that he might appear rude Then proceeded to sell me some second class food. Nice guy - meet 'em everywhere.. . He said"my oh myI have suffered too long And this cigarette seems to be very strong; I don't make the rules I just get what I take And I guess every rule was made to break. You can take what you likeit won't hurt me Cause I'm just working for the company." From the green cigarettehe took a long drag And said"i think I'll pick my travelling bag. I'm tired of cheatingand wasting my head And filling the boss's bags with bread. I want to get out in the sun and rain And feel the wind on on skin again; The world is largeand I've got time yet. Andby the waythanks for that cigarette.. Thank you very much." "you knowI feel like a new man Yes I doI don't know why; I'd just like to say Thank you very much(indeed) It's a beautiful day I think I'll be on my way (right away) I'd just like to say Thank you very much. YesI'm getting the hell out of here YesI am - byebye. That's the end of the message Thank you very much. Bye bye...
