Karaoké Danny's All-Star Joint Rickie Lee Jones

Ooh, downstairs at

Danny's all-star joint they got a jukebox that goes doyt-doyt

The vice is nice they stay in the back all day

But when the nighttime comes

Hey hey, there's this cat down where that makes a bad kinda soup

I come around struttin' my luck in my shoop coupe

Cecil gives a coffee he won't never take my coin

I say, I got thirty dollars in my pocket

Whatchoo doin', I holler

Come on, Cecil, take a dollar

Come on, Cecil, take a ten

But I've finally geared into a whole bunch of big ones

And you're actin' like I'm down-shiftin'

Oh, they know all the under-riders on the boulevard

They got to barefoot cruise when it's forty-weight hard

They look particularly dead-beat permanently pale

Cecil picks up his butcher knife and waves it at the jail

The kid say, I ain't got no dough

Joe, I just want some o.j

I said, Don't look at me 'cos he was lookin' my way

And Cecil wink upon him some juice and some green and the kid walks over and puts a quarter pinball machine

And he says

Come on Cecil, gimme a dollar

Come on Cecil, gimme five

I'm in a half-way house on a one-way street

Cool and I'm quarter past left alive

Ooh

Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah

Well he can talk about your people in a wonderful way

He can talk about your people 'till your hair turns grey

Your sister's into mustard she loves to walk the pup

She likes pickles and a relish she never gets enough

Hershey milkshake steamin' on a stick

Get a hart lamb Sandwiches

Oh, lettuce get it thick

It's not because I'm dirty

It's not because I'm clean

Not because I kissed a boy behind a magazine

He said

Hey Boys, how 'bout a fight

'Cos here comes Ricky with her girdle on tight

She don't know your name she knows what you got from your matzo balls to the chicken in the pot

Chicken in the pot

Chicken in the pot

Chicken

Dow wow wow stairs at

Danny's all star joint

They got a jukebox that goes doyt-doyt

Finger snappin' delux and make you bee bop bop bee

You're R&B love

Hep scat

You can't break the rules until ya know how to play the game

If ya just wanna have a little fun you can mention my name

But keep your feet in the street your toes in the lawn

But keep your business in your pocket baby where it belongs

Come on Cecil, take a dollar
