(ron wood, rod stewart) | |
Too bad we were thrown downstairs; | |
We never got a chance to sing. | |
We were quite polite with one invite | |
To keep us off the streeet. | |
We mingled for a minute or two | |
With the high class clientele. | |
Then somebody said "who invited them, | |
That crowd of refugees. get out!" | |
What an insult, to be shown the door | |
Before we could shake a leg. | |
I was most intrigued by the colored queen | |
Leaning on the kitchen door. | |
Then i was ushered with my friends | |
By the butler who was twelve feet tall. | |
Well let me please explain | |
'cause we're not to blame | |
We just don't have the right accent. no, no | |
All we wanted to do was to socialize | |
Oh, you know its a shame i was always getting the blame | |
All we wanted to do was to socialize | |
Oh, you know its a shame how we always get the blame | |
Sweaty girls and damp motels | |
Is where i'm gonna stay. | |
'cause now i see what it's all about, | |
I didn't at the old school tie. | |
Don't worry, we had no fun waiting | |
For the all night bus home. | |
Too bad my regional tongue | |
Gave us away again. |
