Gin Rummy Lyrics

Gin Rummy lyrics

Wake up in a small cafe

Sweat shop in the sunshine

Set sail and you're far away

Never using force



Cold coffee or cabaret

Break up in a daydream

Shoe drops and you're bound to pay

Gotta stay the course



You just wanna get, you don't wanna give

You may forget, but you'll never forgive

And what is the point of living that living

They're stealing your cup of Joe



It's a slick sham, hot damn

You wind up in a toe jam

You better scram fast, Sam

The quicksand's getting close



Ooh

I say it again if you will

Ooh



Have you got the nerve

To give it up at the beginning?

And does it hurt you?

(Does it hurt you?)

And does it hurt you?

(Does it hurt you?)



My time was a miracle

Insipid and satirical, magical and lyrical

The twists and the fists

Of a Christmas invitation



Crisp and informational

It seemed like a good idea at the time

Why cry, Mr. Magpie?

I spy a cold fire



Feet, I mean seat, I mean, freedom ain't cheap

I mean the first test address

No such thing as a good press

The best dressed you're messing with are Washington D.C.



Ooh

I say it again if you will

Ooh



Have you got the nerve

To give it up at the beginning?

And does it hurt you?

(Does it hurt you?)

And does it hurt you?

(Does it hurt you?)
