Storyteller-complete Anthology Lyrics - 1989
(ron wood, rod stewart & ronnie lane)
Steady all day!
Thought i was lookin' good
So i cycled 'cross the neighbourhood
Was invited by a skinny girl
Into her high class world
Left my bicycle under the stairs
Laid my coat across the kosher chairs
Made my way across the crowded room
I had nothing to lose
My reception wasn't very keen
So turning on a friendly grin,
Stood on the table with my glass of gin
And came straight to the point
I was glad to come
I'll be sad to go
So while i'm here
I'll have me a real good time
I was glad to come
I'll be sad to go
So while i'm here
I'll have me a real good time. oh no
Dancin' madly 'round the room, yeah
Singing loudly and sorta' out of tune
Was escorted by a friendly slag
'round the ... back
Wandered c-c-cross ...
Missed my step and i fell on the floor.
Said one word and was asked to leave
Kinda' wish i was dead.
I was glad to come
And i'll be so sad to leave,
But while i was here
I had me a real good time, oooh.
The skinny girl made it clear,
That she only came here for the beer - that's a fact, oh yeah
The vicar he simply reeked of gin - good god
On my way home i happened to fall off my bicycle, good party
Ooh hoo, ha ha, yeah
I was glad to come, but i was also glad to get home, yeah
Ooh hoo
Hoo, get in there
Ooh hoo
[bark]
