Not every song that
will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian”
in the eyes of this world. For some will
be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously
ferverent rants of rebellion.
Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in
one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the
message.

Lido Shuffle
Boz Scaggs
Lido missed the
boat that day
He left the shack
But that was all he
missed
And he ain't comin’ back
And he ain't comin’ back
At a Tombstone bar
In a juke-joint car
He made a stop
Just long enough
To grab a handle
In a juke-joint car
He made a stop
Just long enough
To grab a handle
Off the top
Next stop Chi town
Lido put the money down
Lido put the money down
Let ‘em roll
He said
One more job
Ought to get it
One last shot
One last shot
Before we quit it
One for the road
One for the road
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a-waitin’
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a-waitin’
For the go
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
He said
One more job
Ought to get it
One last shot
One last shot
Before we quit it
One more for the road
One more for the road
Lido will be
runnin'
Havin' great big fun
Until he got the note
Sayin' toe the line
Havin' great big fun
Until he got the note
Sayin' toe the line
Or blow it
And that was all she wrote
And that was all she wrote
He'll be makin'
like a beeline
Headin' for the border line
Goin' for broke
Headin' for the border line
Goin' for broke
Sayin'
One more hit
Ought to do it
This joint
This joint
Aint nothin' to it
One more for the road
One more for the road
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's waiting
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's waiting
For the go
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
One more job
Ought to get it
One last shot
One last shot
Then we quit it
One more for the road
One more for the road
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a-waitin'
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a-waitin'
For the go
Lido
Lido
Whoa oh oh oh

Lowdown
Boz Scaggs
Baby's into runnin'

Hangin' with the crowd
Puttin’ your business in the street
Talkin' out loud
Sayin' you bought her this and that
And how much you done spent
I swear she must believe
It’s all Heaven sent
Hangin' with the crowd
Puttin’ your business in the street

Same old schoolboy game

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Adullamite!!! Nope, there is no accounting for your taste in music. Just too many balls to the head, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteOh my, it's been years since I've heard Lido Shuffle. What a blast from the past
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Ann!!! Methinks head-bopping to that song may have contributed a lot to the brain damage Arlynda insists that I am suffering from.
ReplyDeleteThis one I don't know - just stopping by to say hello. sandie
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Sandie!!!
