piano man [01:37.75] [01:38.53]Some of the chicks wore expensive frocks [01:40.91]Some of them had on bobbie socks [01:43.48]But everybody was nice and high [01:46.14]Particular Saturday Night Fish

[02:13.99]We figure this was a good place to play [02:16.37]Coz the party was already under way [02:19.28]But all of a sudden the lights went low [02:21.85]And everybody made straight for the front door [02:24.05] [02:24.71]I didn't know where i was gonna go [02:26.66]So I stood right there then I fell on the floor [02:29.35]It was rockin' it was rockin' [02:32.81] [02:34.26]You never seen such

[02:57.22]Somebody say [02:57.94]"Better get out of here this's a raid" [03:00.27]I didn't know we were breakin' the law [03:02.52]But somebody reached up and clip me on the jaw [03:05.26]They had us
