Story Behind The Song
WHEN I WAS 14 MY PARENTS TOOK ME TO PARIS, FRANCE AND WHEN WE WERE WALKING DOWN THE CHAMPS ELYSEE WE HEARD SOME GREAT MUSIC AND PEOPLE MOVING TO IT. THERE WAS AN IN-STORE DJ THAT HAD DONE HIS HOMEWORK, PICKING OUT THE HOTEST 20 SEC OFF OF THE NEWEST ALBUMS AND THEY WOULD SELL LIKE HOTCAKES. IT WAS THE MOST HAPPENING SPOT ON THE STRIP AT 10 PM. I JUST MADE UP LINDA LU WITH THAT IN MIND.

Lyrics
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY
LONG AGO
I SAW THE LIGHTS
BEHIND A RECORD STORE
PEOPLE DANCING
AND WONDERING WHAT TO DO
I SAW A GIRL I KNEW
AND MY LINDA LU
BABY BABY
I NEED YOUR LOVE TONIGHT
EVERYONE
WAS DANCING IN THE STREET
SITTIN THERE CLAPPIN
OR STOMPIN THEIR SHOES IN BEAT
EVERYONE HAD
SOMETHING ELSE TO DO
BUT ALL I WANTED
WAS MY LINDA LU
BABY BABY
I NEED YOUR LOVE TONIGHT
HEY HEY DARLIN
COME AWAY WITH ME
I KNOW A PLACE
WHERE YOU WOULD RATHER BE
BABY BABY
I NEED YOUR LOVE TONIGHT
MY LINDA LU
SHE DOES IT SO FINE FOR ME
COME ON AND LET ME TELL YOU
MY LINDA LU SHE DOES IT FOR YOU
AND I KNOW ITS GONNA BE SO TRUE
MY LINDA LU
SINCE THAT DAY
I'VE BEEN TO THE RECORD STORE
AND I FIND THAT LINDA LU
AIN'T WORKING THERE NO MORE
