Heavy Traffic

Music by elton john and davey johnstone

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album reg strikes back



Shakey wake up thirsty from a night in the bar

And snake hips joe is mr. cool

Out on the boulevard

The pimp from the jack of diamonds

Just got another jane doe

She just got off the last bus from montecedo



Sailor boys find trouble in the alien state

It's one on one from las palmas to the golden gate

Fly boys on the corner waiting for a ride

For twenty bucks he'll pull the cork on the man inside





`cause we're rolling in heavy traffic

Judy's in the jump seat and jody's in the bucket

Billy likes to drive and jackie's just high

And cindy thinks we're all gonna commit suicide

`cause we're rolling in heavy traffic

Yeah we're rolling in heavy traffic





Mack he's got his marlboros tucked up in his sleeve

He's shacked up in his basement making p.c.p.

He used to shake the french fries

Down on 12th and maine

And now he stays up nights on apple juice and cocaine
