Lyrics


1. JUST A GIGOLO

Just a gigolo,
Everywhere I go,
People know the part I'm playing.
Paid for every dance,
Selling each romance,
Every night some heart betraying.
There will come a day,
Youth will pass away,
Then, what will they say about me?
When the end comes I know
They'll say "Just a gigolo,"
As life goes on without me.
I ai't got nobody
I'm so sad and lonely
Nobody cares for me"


2. CALIFORNIA GIRLS

Well East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there

The Mid-West farmers' daughters really make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I dig them girls!

I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

The West coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a french bikini on a wild island coast
By a palm tree in the sand

I been all around this great big world
And I seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world

I dig them girls!

I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)


3. YANKEE ROSE

(Intro)

What?
Well let me roll up onto the sidewalk and take a look at Her.
WoAh! She's beautiful! I'm talkin about a yankee rose!
And she looks wild. . . wild. . . wild. . . WILD!

Are you ready for the new sensation?
Well here's a shot around the world!
All you backroom boys salute, when her flag unfolds!
Well guess who's back in circulation. . .
Now I don't know what you may have heard,
But what I need right now is the original, good time girl!

(Chorus)

She's a vision from coast to coast (coast to coast)
Sea to shining sea (sea to shining sea)
Hey sister your the perfect host (make a toast)
Show me your BRIGHT LIGHTS and your CITY LIGHTS alright,
I'm talkin bout the yankee rose!
BRIGHT LIGHTS and your CITY LIGHTS alright! I'M TALKIN 'BOUT IT!

When she walks watch the sparks go fly, fire crackin' on the 4th of July!
No sad songs tonight, something's in the air! (You can Feel it getcha!)
A real state of independence, so pretty when her rockets Flare!
Still provin' every night that her flag's still there!

(Chorus)

She's a vison from coast to coast (coast to coast)
Sea to shining sea (sea to shining sea)
Hey siter your the perfect host (make a toast)
Show me your BRIGHT LIGHTS and your CITY LIGHTS alright.
I'm talkin bout the yankee rose!
BRIGHT LIGHTS and your CITY LIGHTS alright!
I'm in love with the yankee rose

Ahh. . . she's beautiful alright, mmm nothin' like her in the whole world

She's on time, I'm on the case, pick up the phone, no time To waste
She got the beat, and there's a little bit a comin' your Way!

Ahhh raise 'em up there, let's see who salutes baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, little bit, little bit, Little bit higher.
Here's the mast, swing her from here, yeah
I wanna get a little bit of apple pie!

BRIGHT LIGHTS, CITY LIGHTS! (repeat)


4. GOIN' CRAZY!

Well, here I'm rollin' down another sunny highway,
Been in the sun too long.
I'm goin' coconuts but least I'm goin' my way,
I'll prob'bly be here when that sun goes down.

I wanna live it up, wanna quit my job,
Tell the boss to go to hell.
I ain't complainin', you do the best with what you got.
I know you're laughin' 'cause it's easy to tell

I'm goin' crazy,
Goin' crazy,
Oo, from the heat.

Remember dancing on the pier last night?
Got drunk and fell into the water.
The big policeman wasn't laughing, didn't blink an eye,
He said, "You're messin' with the mayor's daughter. "

Don't tell me, "Give it up", too busy getting down,
I learned my lessons well.
You get it goin' and you don't never stop.
I know you're laughin' 'cause it's easy to tell

I'm goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
Goin' crazy,
Oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
Goin' crazy,
Oo, from the heat.
