Lady With A Tenor Sax

(album: Enough Is Enough - 1986)

I been faking my past...
But now I know my connection is coming through
I put my ass on the line when you walk by...
Hey--so what's new

Don't look now she's inching up behind
Don't look now in the creases of your mind
Don't stop now...we're moving much too fast
Gonna find out where you draw the line
Here she come now...she tunes so fine

There's a lady with a tenor sax
Cool baby drives a mean Cadillac
Lady with a tenor sax
You gotta meet her on her own level--don't look back
Don't look back...don't look back
Cause she's right behind you with a tenor sax

She jives, she's so bad
She's a tango with a big, big business sense
She wind you up--but could I know her better...
But if you wanna buy--get off the fence

Don't walk now...you'll slip into the past
Don't walk now...can nothing ever last
Don't look now...the chips are gonna fall
Sooner of later you're gonna be mine
Here she come now, oh yeah yeah

She's a lady with a tenor sax
She call your number, put your face on the map
Lady with a tenor sax
She make the cool walk

She's a lady with a tenor sax
When you find what you're after there'll be no turning back
Lady with a tenor sax
They say she know why--I think she know, think she know, yea

Don't walk now...you'll slip into the past
Don't walk now...can nothing ever last
Don't look now...the chips are gonna fall
Sooner or later you're gonna be mine
Here she come now, oh yeah yeah

She's a lady with a tenor sax
In a room full of precedent she's leader of the pack
Lady with a tenor sax
She know why...she know why...she know

She's a lady with a tenor sax
Soul baby cuts a groove on her back
Lady with a tenor sax...
