Overture - Cotton Avenue

[00:13.18] Eh, eh, eh
[00:27.50] Oh, eh-eh
[01:07.15] Ay, ay (way)
[01:25.84] Whee
[01:37.45] Whee
[02:34.67] Whee (whee), whee
[02:43.99]
[02:59.07] A red sun came rolling down a grey sky
[03:05.04] And the frogs and dogs and night birds then started up singing
[03:08.57] Sweet country lullaby (sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet lullaby)
[03:14.67] You see that patch of city lights?
[03:18.48] Somewhere in there's Cotton Avenue
[03:20.93] That's where I'm gonna take myself tonight
[03:23.23] With a spit shine on my dancing shoes
[03:33.98] If you got a place like that to go
[03:37.56] You just have to go there
[03:42.02] If you got no place special
[03:45.67] Well, then you just go no place special
[04:02.22] I guess it's just the summer in the young blood
[04:06.76] Ripe and juicy in the young blood
[04:10.80] Teasing to go down to Cotton Avenue
[04:17.87] To hear the shiny, shiny music
[04:22.23] See all the shiny people dancing to it
[04:27.07] Anytime you go to Cotton Avenue
[04:37.76] If you got a place like that to go
[04:41.71] You know you got to go there
[04:45.49] If you got no place special
[04:49.14] Well, then you just go no place special (place, mm)
[05:05.72] You see that summer storm brewing in the southern sky?
[05:10.77] By the time it hits here, I'll be dancing high and dry
[05:15.63] To rhythm and blues on Cotton Avenue
[05:21.53] Poor boys will be hanging around outside in the street
[05:25.64] They got all the latest words
[05:27.04] They're dancing to the latest beat
[05:30.29] While they're hustling and sizing you on Cotton Avenue
[05:40.99] If you got a place like that to go
[05:44.79] You just have to go there
[05:48.76] If you've got no place special
[05:51.56] Well, my dear, you just go no place special (eh-yeah, ay)
[06:03.13]
