Christie Lee (Demo) - Billy Joel[00:00:00]
Let me tell you a story[00:00:09]
About a woman and a man[00:00:12]
Maybe you will find familiar[00:00:16]
Maybe you won't understand[00:00:19]
The man's name I don't remember[00:00:22]
He was always joe to me[00:00:25]
But I can't forget the woman[00:00:29]
She was always christie lee[00:00:32]
He was working in a night club[00:00:35]
That's where he played the saxophone[00:00:38]
He used to fake to stock arrangements[00:00:42]
He left the customers alone[00:00:45]
But one night before the last song[00:00:48]
About a quarter after three[00:00:52]
He saw her standing at the coat check[00:00:55]
And made his move on christie lee[00:00:58]
She was a nice piece of music[00:01:14]
She had a rhythm all her own[00:01:17]
He blew a solo like a blind man[00:01:21]
She really dug his saxophone[00:01:24]
She wanted more than just an encore[00:01:27]
And he could play in every key[00:01:31]
He left the stage and packed his alto[00:01:34]
And he took it home with christie lee[00:01:37]
Oh I heard the man knew the bird like the bible[00:01:40]
You know the man could blow an educated axe[00:01:44]
He couldn't see that christie lee was a woman[00:01:48]
Who didn't need another lover[00:01:51]
All she wanted was the sax[00:01:53]
It took a while for him to notice[00:01:55]
It took a while for him to see[00:01:58]
He was never in control here[00:02:02]
It was always christie lee[00:02:05]
Oh the man took a calculated gamble[00:02:21]
Yes the man had the power to perform[00:02:25]
But christie lee was more than he knew how to handle[00:02:28]
She didn't need him as a man[00:02:31]
All she wanted was the horn[00:02:33]
They say that joe became a wino[00:02:35]
They say he always drinks alone[00:02:38]
They say he stumbles like a blind man[00:02:42]
They say he sold his saxophone[00:02:45]
So even the band must face the music[00:02:48]
That's what the moral is to me[00:02:51]
The only time you hit the high note[00:02:55]
Is when you play for christie lee[00:02:58]
Christie lee christie lee[00:03:01]
Christie lee christie lee[00:03:04]
Christie lee christie lee[00:03:39]
Christie lee christie lee[00:03:42]
The only time we handle[00:03:45]
