[QUOTE="DS, post: 248502, member: 556"] Music played a big part in my life.As a little kid I loved "moon river" by Andy Williams,and "somewhere over the rainbow" My mom liked the showtunes and I`ve been told that one day in the grocery store when I was about 5 or 6,I raised a few eyebrows singing a line from guys and dolls..."who the hell do you think he,s tickling pink on saturday night" I still find myself singing that song...the lyrics still fit today.... [COLOR=darkorange]When you see a guy reach for stars in the sky You can bet that he's doing it for some doll. When you spot a John waiting out in the rain Chances are he's insane as only a John can be for a Jane. When you meet a gent paying all kinds of rent For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal. Call it sad, call it funny. But it's better than even money That the guy's only doing it for some doll. When you see a Joe saving have of his dough You can bet there'll be mink in it for some doll. When a bum buys wine like a bum can't afford It's a cinch that the bum is under the thumb of some little broad. When you meet a mug lately out of the jug And he's still lifting platinum folderol Call it hell, call it heaven But it's probable twelve to seven That the guy's only doing it for some doll. (interlude) When you see a sport and his cash has run short Make a bet that he's banking it with some doll. When a guy wears tails with the front gleaming white Who the hell do you think he's tickling pink on Saturday night? When a lazy slob takes a goody steady job, And he smells from vitalis and barbasol. Call it dumb, call it clever Ah, but you can get odds forever That the guy's only doing it for some doll Some doll, some doll [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
