Let It Roll

(daneski/worman/boyle/sandall)

Oh pretty baby you just can't talk
Oh pretty baby you just can't walk
All you've got is a pretty face
All you've got is a pretty face

I've been told you'll never graduate
Left your chances a little bit late
All you've got is a pretty face
All you've got is a pretty face

When your big brown eyes started looking at me
Your cute little smile is coming through to me
Yes pretty baby now i can see
I found a lover

Oh pretty baby you just can't talk
Oh pretty baby you just can't walk
All you've got is a pretty face
All you've got is a pretty face

- guitar solo -

I've been told you'll never graduate
Left your chances a little bit late
All you've got is a pretty face
All you've got is a pretty face

When your big brown eyes started looking at me
And your cute little smile is coming through to me
Yes pretty baby now i can see
I found a lover

It's an eastern promise, it's a pot of gold
It's the oldest story that's ever been told, that's right
You can follow me but you gonna have to pay
Heaven's at the end of this alleyway tonight

Hong kong money
Let that dollar roll
All you need is the cash
The rest ain't nothing but trash
Hong kong money
Stole my soul

Tried hard to shake it but i guess i couldn't make it
Lord only knows it's hard on the opium run
I didn't really wanna hang around too long
Just wasn't my dish of egg fou yung no fun

Hong kong money
Let that dollar roll
Just as long as you make with the green
You'll be cool if you know what i mean
Hong kong money
Stole my soul

You can make it quick but you can lose it easy
You go in clean but you come out wheely, here's why
It's that yellow powder, it's sweet but it's sour
One false move and you can kiss this world goodbye

Hong kong money
Let that dollar roll
All you need is the cash
The rest ain't nothing but trash
Hong kong money
Stole my soul

Hey you!
Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll
(to fade)

Jimmy was a winner back in his home town
People came to see him play from miles around
Then one morning he woke up and looked himself in the face
Said i'm going round in circles i ain't gettin' no place
All this working for peanuts is getting way out of hand
I've had about as much of it as i can stand

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Goodbye small time from tonight
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Jimmy gave his notice headed down to the smoke
Well it wasn't too much later he was hungry and broke
He'd been paying out good money for a hole in the wall
Gigging every night and earning nothing at all
Said the work that i've been dreaming of is way out of reach
I've got to be a bigger pebble on a smaller beach

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Now it's 'hello home town, bye tonight'
Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Oooh aaahhh that crazy jimmy
Oooh aaahhh
Back amongst his friends he had to swallow his pride
'cause he thought the grass was greener on the other side

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run
Drop, drop everything and run
I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights
Now it's 'hello home town, bye tonight'
Gonna' drop, drop everything
Drop, drop everything
Drop, drop everything and run
