Lucrecia

(アルバム： Levon Helm - 1978)

Saturday night a'cruisin the streets in the city
Hey mister, can you tell me where to go
He said I know a place, now if you want the real nitty gritty
Well, Lucrecia is the girl that you oughta know

So I jumped in the cab, I followed this stranger's direction
We pulled up to the Paradise Hotel
I walked up the steps so eager in need of affection
I reached out and stuck my finger on the bell

And then a voice outta nowhere said kindly state your business, please

Lucrecia, angel in the night
Spread your wings and take me on a magic flight
Lucrecia, a quarter for the dance
And if you spend your money, she'll supply the sweet romance

On up in her room, my fantasy went into motion
She thrilled me like I never been before
I was weak in the knees, after the raging commotion
I stood up and slowly staggered to the door

She said you came in like a schoolboy but you leaving here a man

Lucrecia, angel in the night
Spread your wings and take me on a magic flight
Lucrecia, a quarter for the dance
And if you spend your money, then she'll supply the sweet romance
Lucrecia, angel in the night
Now spread your wings and take me on a magic flight
