Little Feat - Representing The Mambo lyrics

rate me

Gretta's Flunky, Some Boot-licking Lackey, Some Wild-eyed Romeo

Winds Op the Mountain With Rio Down Below

Drives Too Slowly Past a Burning Impromptu Altar

Attended By no One of Visible Means

Could Be a Warning Shining Us On, But We're Far Too Gone

We're On Our Way to See Some Johnny

Representing the Mambo

Representing the Mambo... Mambo... Mambo Oooh.. Mambo

Rounding the Corner We Come to a Halt

Doors Fly Open As We Prepare For Assault

Out From the Shadows Step the Dangerous Boys

Hands Hiding Weapons, They Treat Them Like Toys

Debutante Gretta, the Taxidermist's Daughter

She Knows What to Say

She Knows How to Mingle, She Knows the Lingo

Muchachos Wh're Here to See Johnny

Representing the Mambo

Representing the Mambo... Mambo... Mambo Oooh.. Mambo

Gretta Leads Us Through the Stone Carved Archway

Into the School of Samba, the Place of Sacred Rites

We Push Through a Gauntlet of Limpwristed Handshakes

And Empty Cotillion Air Kisses

Gretta Smiles As We Make Our Way to the Bar

The New Crowd Says I Remind Them of Frank

Who Died of Excessive Nymphets

In Barcelona... in Barcelona

Who's That With Gretta? You Know How She Is...

Yeah, Never the Same One Twice

I Wonder If By Any Chance You Would Like a Piece of Cake

No Thank You, My Ears Are Too Sweet Now

A Strange Choice of Work, But Forensically It's True

Sudden Thunder Clap Drum Roll

Gretta's On the Stage... She's a Honey of a Hun

This Blue-eyed Angel Girl

Announces Proudly to Everyone in the Room

Senhores Y Senores Here's Johnny

Representing the Mambo

Representing the Mambo... Mambo... Mambo Oooh.. Mambo

Gretta Gretta I've Got to Slip Away

It Just Won't Work Between Us

Your Daddy Runs the House of Pain

You Are the Taxidermist's Daughter
