BLUE ROMEO
WORDS & MUSIC: HANK “HOLY ROLLER” RAY
EDITION JUMAR MUSIC, 1987
I was heading for the place where milk and honey flow
Remembering my baby everywhere I’d go
I strolled along the sideways to the place where lovers’d meet
To a hideaway called ‘Land of Ecstacy’……
Red lights were a-flashing the dancers moved along
Swaying to the rhythm of a good old jukebox song
I saw a lot of broken hearted in a barroom drowned in smoke
When this sweet young thing these words to me she spoke
And she said…
Come to me…BLUE ROMEO
Come to me…BLUE ROMEO
She sat beside me and whispered in my ear
‘Everything you’ve dreamed of, you may find right here’
We sat beneath the lanters and we talked all through the night
Little go-go dancer sure made me feel all right
When she said
Come to me…BLUE ROMEO
Come to me…BLUE ROMEO
I said, ‘hey, there babe, why don’t you come along with me?’
Oh, she smiled and whispered, ‘that can never be…
‘Cause I’ve got a tall cool daddy and two kids who wait outside’
Her bye-bye kiss just made me realize
I’m just a…BLUE ROMEO…
