Lyrics for Song: Babylon Sisters
Lyrics for Album: Definitive Collection [2006]
Drive west on Sunset to the sea
Turn that jungle music down, just until we're out of town
This is no one night stand, it's a real occasion
Close your eyes and you'll be there
It's everything they say, the end of a perfect day
Distant lights from across the bay
Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young (Tell me I'm the only one)
Here come those Santa Ana winds again
We'll jog with show folk on the sand
Drink kirschwasser from a shell, San Francisco show and tell
Well, I should know by now that it's just a spasm
Like a Sunday in T.J.
That it's cheap but it's not free
That I'm not what I used to be
And that love's not a game for three
Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young (Tell me I'm the only one)
Here come those Santa Ana winds again
My friends say no, don't go for that cotton candy
Son, you're playing with fire, the kid will live and learn
As he watches his bridges burn from the point of no return
Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young (Tell me I'm the only one)
You've got to shake it, baby
You've got to shake it, baby
You've got to shake it
(Repeat....)
