Christie Lee - Billy Joel[00:00:00]
Let me tell you a story[00:00:00]
About a woman and a man[00:00:03]
Maybe you will find familiar[00:00:07]
Maybe you won't understand[00:00:10]
The man's name I don't remember[00:00:13]
He was always Joe to me[00:00:16]
But I can't forget the woman[00:00:19]
She was always Christie Lee[00:00:23]
He was working in a night club[00:00:26]
That's where he played the saxophone[00:00:29]
He used to fake[00:00:32]
The stock arrangements[00:00:33]
He left the customers alone[00:00:35]
But one night before the last song[00:00:39]
About a quarter after three[00:00:42]
He saw her standing at the coat check[00:00:45]
And made his move on Christie Lee[00:00:48]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:00:52]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:00:55]
She was a nice piece of music[00:01:04]
She had a rhythm all her own[00:01:08]
He blew a solo like a blind man[00:01:11]
She really dug his saxophone[00:01:14]
She wanted more than just an encore[00:01:17]
And he could play in every key[00:01:21]
He left the stage and packed his alto[00:01:24]
And took it home with Christie Lee[00:01:27]
Oh I heard the man knew[00:01:31]
'The bird' like the bible[00:01:33]
You know the man[00:01:34]
Could blow an educated axe[00:01:35]
He couldn't see[00:01:38]
That Christie Lee was a woman[00:01:38]
Who didn't need another lover[00:01:41]
All she wanted was the sax[00:01:43]
It took a while for him to notice[00:01:45]
It took a while for him to see[00:01:48]
He was never in control here[00:01:52]
It was always Christie Lee[00:01:55]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:01:58]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:02:02]
Oh the man took a calculated gamble[00:02:11]
Yes the man had the power to perform[00:02:15]
But Christie Lee was[00:02:18]
More than he knew how to handle[00:02:19]
She didn't need him as a man[00:02:21]
All she wanted was the horn[00:02:23]
They say that Joe became a wimo[00:02:26]
They say he always drinks alone[00:02:29]
They say he stumbles like a blind man[00:02:32]
They say he sold his saxophone[00:02:35]
Even the band must face the music[00:02:39]
That's what the moral is to me[00:02:42]
The only time you hit the high note[00:02:45]
Is when you play for Christie Lee[00:02:48]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:02:52]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:02:55]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:03:01]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:03:05]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:03:08]
Christie Lee Christie Lee[00:03:14]
