Take Miss Lucy Home

(Album: Lightning Strikes Twice - 1989)

Was driving in my car long about Saturday night,
I met a guy in a silver Trans-Am at a traffic light,
He said "Hey, you want to make some dough?",
Before I had a chance to say "No",
He said "All you gotta do is take Miss Lucy home"

He told me his name was Lou, he took me aside,
He said "I really gotta go, but my baby, she needs a ride",
Well I thought it sounds kinda strange,
But he gave me twenty bucks and some change,
And said "All you gotta do is take Miss Lucy home"

[Chorus:]
Take Miss Lucy home, take Miss Lucy home,
All I gotta do is take Miss Lucy home,
(I don't know)
Lou took off and left me with this drunk chick,
She had purple hair and a mouthful of green lipstick,
She said "I used to live with Lou,
But he's catching the next train to Kathmandu,
He left me here so I I'll stay with you"

Well, now I'm in a mess cause I tried to be a hell of a guy,
When he said "Take her home",
How could I know he meant to take her to her to mine?
Not mine!

Driving home in my car late last Saturday night,
I met a guy in a red corvette at a traffic light,
I said "Hey, you want to make some dough",
Before he had a chance to say "No",
I said "All you got to do is take Miss Lucy home"

[Chorus:]
Take Miss Lucy home, take Miss Lucy home,
All you gotta do is take Miss Lucy home

[Chorus:]
Take Miss Lucy home, take Miss Lucy home,
you gotta take Miss Lucy home,
All you gotta do is take Miss Lucy home,
(Get her out of here!),
(Whew!)
