6 Count Swing by This Way to the Egress Lyrics
My dear I got to tell ya something while I'm on my feet
I soaked myself in gin tonight, I can't be discreet
Lucky Lucy's on the floor, she won't get up till dawn
The jukebox is running low, I guess I better get home
Oh
Well, I guess I'll tell ya baby, there's a prize for every fight
The train is leavin' right on time, the city with no lights
It seems to me they got you babe, you bat your eyes so well
Your crimes don't feel so bad when you're on that trail
Oh
Well, I see the way you wanna be, your subtleties a case
Parade yourself around like a drink, like a waste
The wolves out there will eat you up, you better go on home
'Cause you'll invest in something baby, that ya can't return
Oh
Well now, can't ya see we gotta go downtown
Gotta buy you diamond rings and a silk black gown
It's never too late to twirl around in that dress
We'll do the Lindy Hop—the Jitterbug—confess to impress
I see the way you're lookin' at me, what do I do?
I feel the stomp of your heels
It's time to disperse for cocktail hour
Cranberry and club
Well it don't matter!
I see the way you wanna go in this world
The time, it don't much matter, staying young is getting old
Shut the suicide doors, don't ya dare look back
Well we're leavin' today, say goodbye to fat Jack
I see the way that you are
Never knowin' your next move
So let's pave the way
For unpredictable dismay
Do ya understand me darlin'?
I never see us fallin'
So lets keep on dancin'
The six count swing!
'Cause I see the way that you are
Never knowin' your next move
So let's pave the way
For unpredictable dismay
Do ya understand me darlin'?
I never see us fallin'
So lets keep on dancin'
The six count swing!
I see the way that you are
Never knowin' your next move
So let's pave the way
For unpredictable dismay
Do ya understand me darlin'?
I never see us fallin'
So lets keep on dancin'
That six count swing!
I soaked myself in gin tonight, I can't be discreet
Lucky Lucy's on the floor, she won't get up till dawn
The jukebox is running low, I guess I better get home
Oh
Well, I guess I'll tell ya baby, there's a prize for every fight
The train is leavin' right on time, the city with no lights
It seems to me they got you babe, you bat your eyes so well
Your crimes don't feel so bad when you're on that trail
Oh
Well, I see the way you wanna be, your subtleties a case
Parade yourself around like a drink, like a waste
The wolves out there will eat you up, you better go on home
'Cause you'll invest in something baby, that ya can't return
Oh
