《The Egypt Room》歌词

[00:00:00] The Egypt Room - Richard Thompson

[00:00:09] Now Hobnail Kelly and the Beefcake kid

[00:00:13] Just rolled into town from the

[00:00:17] Land of sown-up faces

[00:00:21] Looking for a woman who can

[00:00:23] Punch and kick and bite

[00:00:30] Slide on down to the Egypt room

[00:00:34] Find the only woman who's

[00:00:37] Holding all the aces

[00:00:42] The Princess is dancing

[00:00:44] At the Egypt Room tonight

[00:00:50] Don't be late

[00:00:54] Don't be late

[00:00:58] Don't be late

[00:01:03] She's a nightclub floosie nothing but a tramp

[00:01:09] But she moves like a snake

[00:01:11] And she shimmies like a fish in the ocean

[00:01:15] She can fool with a man 'till

[00:01:18] He doesn't know wrong from right

[00:01:24] She's got diamonds flashing ruby rings

[00:01:29] She sparkles like the Nile when

[00:01:31] She does her original motion

[00:01:36] The Princess is dancing

[00:01:38] At the Egypt Room tonight

[00:01:44] Now don't be late

[00:01:48] Ah don't be late

[00:01:53] Oh don't be late

[00:02:26] The man with the cane and Italian shoes

[00:02:31] He walks like a lion looking

[00:02:34] For a lonely Christian

[00:02:38] He peeps at the Princess and

[00:02:40] His bloodshot eyes open wide

[00:02:47] He says meet me princess after the show

[00:02:52] I'm a gambling man and I think

[00:02:55] I like your system

[00:02:59] I'll see you at the back of

[00:03:01] The Egypt Room tonight

[00:03:06] Now don't be late

[00:03:10] Oh don't be late

[00:03:15] Ah don't be late
