Michael Beatty: Lyrics & Listen
Slapback
A shimmy shake
To lose your blues
You step outside to find
(Ya know) This living is for real
And everyone
Looks at you
As if you are for sale
(And ya know) It’s just a state of mind
Tonight I’m feeling so alive
I’m gonna get on down
In this dive with you
Chase away/lose the blues
Shake your shimmy
Shake your thing
Work it out until we hear
Sweet Georgia sing
A little bit of rock-n-roll
To take your weary
Aching soul away
Slapback blues
For lack of day
Thrift Shop Chic
Let it fly
Crazy all the way
(Put on) Your native funk and flash
Run around
Make the scene
Ain’t nothing too surreal
(It’s on) For Mikey and the boys
Tonight I’m feeling so alive
I’m gonna get on down
In this dive with you
Chase away/lose the blues
Shake your shimmy
Shake your thing
Work it out until we hear
Sweet Georgia sing
A little bit of rock-n-roll
To take your weary
Aching soul away
Slapback blues
For lack of day
Slapback for lack
Of day
