I'm okay, you're okay
Why remember when it wasn't this way
See my home, see my car
And the beach always used to seem so far

[Chorus]
And no one touches me
Unless it's the way I want it to be

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold
Look over there (where?)
There, there's a lady that I used to know
She's married now or engaged or something so I'm told
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?

Принято считать, что современный свинг-ревайвэл, появление у независимых музыкантов интереса к свинговому наследию (и, среди поклонников такой музыки - к танцам линди-хоп и буги-вуги) произошло в 1991 г. Тогда вышел первый альбом группы Royal Crown Revue - одного из флагманов современного нео-свинг движения. Однако, ровно на 10 лет раньше был записан альбом Joe Jackson "Jumpin Jive". К сожалению, в дальнейшем этот талантливый музыкант и композитор к свинговой тематике уже не возвращался.

What the hell is wrong with you tonight?
I can't seem to say or do the right thing
Wanted to be sure you're feeling right
Wanted to be sure we want the same thing

She said, I can't believe it
You can't, possibly mean it
Don't we, all want the same thing

Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis?
Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis?
I got to get away, study my geography
I'm just a shadow of the boy I used to be
I used to see the light, now it's all a mystery
I used to feel the beat, now I feel a million miles from...
Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis?
Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis?

take your mind back
i don't know when
sometime when it always seemed to be just us and them
girls that wore pink
boys that wore blue
boys that always grew up better men
than me and you

Now -
The mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes

We -
So tired of all the darkness in our lives

Did you do me right?
Did I do right by you?
When I bared my soul it seems you did not hear
Can this be true?
Am I fool to fight?
I could do just what you say
But I'm following my heart and that takes me another way
It's not easy when there's no one one giving prizes at the end

Who doubt say, who doubt when I say, who doubt...
You cats keep beetin' up your chops
I had turn you over to the cops
I dig this spiel I'm going way on your gate
Don't cop your broom pop or buddy or mate

You run your mouth and I'll run my business brother
You run your mouth and I'll run my business brother
