Danny's All-Star Joint - Rickie Lee Jones[00:00:00]
Downstairs at danny's all-star joint[00:00:06]
They got a juke box that goes doyt-doyt[00:00:09]
The vice is nice they stay in the back all day[00:00:13]
But when the nighttime comes hey-hey[00:00:16]
There's this cat down there that makes a bad kinda soup[00:00:20]
I come around strutting my luck in my shoop coupe[00:00:23]
Cecil gives me coffee[00:00:26]
And he won't never take my coin[00:00:28]
I say " I got thirty dollars in my pocket [00:00:30]
Whatchoo doing[00:00:32]
I holler " Come on Cecil take a dollar [00:00:33]
Come on Cecil take a ten [00:00:37]
I've finally geared up into a whole buncha big ones[00:00:39]
And you're acting like I'm down-shifting[00:00:43]
He knows all the under-riders on the boulevard[00:00:44]
They got to barefoot cruise when it's forty-weight hard[00:00:48]
They look particularly dead-beat[00:00:53]
Permanently pale[00:00:55]
Cecil picks up his butcher knife[00:00:57]
Waves it at the jail[00:00:59]
The kid say " I ain't got no dough Joe I just want some o j[00:01:00]
I said " Don't look at me[00:01:04]
Cuz he was looking my way[00:01:06]
Cecil wink upon him some juice and some green[00:01:08]
And the kid walks over and puts the quarter[00:01:09]
In the pinball machine[00:01:12]
Come on Cecil gimme a dollar[00:01:13]
Come on Cecil gimme five[00:01:17]
I'm in a half-way house on a one-way street[00:01:20]
And I'm a quarter past left alive[00:01:23]
He can talk about your people in a wonderful way[00:01:40]
He can talk about your people 'til your hair turns grey[00:01:44]
Your sister's into mustard[00:01:47]
She loves to walk the pub[00:01:49]
She likes the pickles and the relish she never gets enough[00:01:50]
A Hershey milkshake steaming on a stick[00:01:54]
For a Card Blanché sandwich[00:01:57]
Oh lettuce get thick[00:01:59]
It's not because I'm dirty[00:02:01]
It's not because I'm clean[00:02:03]
It's not because I kiss the boys behind the magazine[00:02:04]
Hey boys [00:02:08]
How 'bout a fight [00:02:10]
Cuz here comes Rickie with the girdle on tight[00:02:11]
And if she don't know your name[00:02:14]
She knows what you got[00:02:16]
From Your matzo balls[00:02:18]
To the chicken-in-the-pot[00:02:19]
Chicken-in-the-pot[00:02:23]
Chicken-in-the-pot[00:02:25]
Downstairs at Danny's All Star Joint[00:02:26]
They got a juke box that goes doyt-doyt[00:02:30]
A finger-snapping deluxe[00:02:33]
Make your be-bop bap[00:02:35]
And your will hep-scat[00:02:36]
You can't break the rules until you know[00:02:41]
How to play the game[00:02:43]
But if you just want to have a little fun[00:02:44]
You can mention my name[00:02:46]
Keep your feet on the street[00:02:47]
Your toes on the lawn[00:02:49]
But keep your business in your pocket[00:02:50]
This is it were it belongs[00:02:51]
Come on Cecil take a dollar[00:02:54]
Come on Cecil take a tip[00:02:56]
Take do yourself a favor If she offers it take it[00:03:00]
But honey don't give it away if she don't appreciate it[00:03:03]
