Toby Keith - Club Zydeco Moon lyrics

rate me

She was a dancer at the Club Zydeco Moon

An all night social house and all day saloon

She had the face and body the devil’s own desire

Her lips were full and sugar sweet as blackberry wine

Chorus:

She danced around my table

Flashin’ gris-gris eyes at me

Swayin’ to the tempo of a squeezebox melody

She reached down and snatched the folded money

from my fist

So easy to give into and too hard to resist

She did her business underneath the candle light

Always aware of Mama Zuzu’s watchful eye

How many young boys have lost their innocence

Turned into old men wonderin’ where their

money went

What happened 20 years ago seem like yesterday

I don’t drive through that part of town, I go the

other way

She still dances through my bedroom every time I

go to sleep

To the rhythm of the music that the squeezebox

player keeps

I smell the incense burning Mama Zuzu’s cigarette

Louisiana heat wave and the midnight summer sweat

Somewhere down that alley there’s an old run

down saloon

She’s waiting there for me at Club Zydeco Moon

Repeat chorus

She was a dancer…
