Lyrics
?CAFE CASINO?
SHE?S A LADY QUITE A LADY
SHE?D MAKE ANYONE TAKE A SECOND LOOK
SHE?S A FIGHTER AN ALL NIGHTER
SHE?S THE BARMAID THE WAITRESS AND COOK
.....CHORUS.....
AND SHE LIGHTS UP THE GOOD OLE BOYS EYES
IN A TOWN ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF RENO
AND SHE?LL SHOW YOU THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE
AT A PLACE CALLED THE CAFE CASINO
SHE?S A DANCER HOPELESS ROMANCER
SHE LOVES ROSES AND SILK THINGS AND SUCH
SHE?S THE DISHPAN HANDED AGAINST THE GRAIN SANDED
BUT SHE CAN LOVE YOU WITH LESS THAN A TOUCH
REPEAT
.....CHORUS.....
....BRIDGE....
GET EM WHILE THEY?RE HOT SHE CRIES EACH MORNING
THE BACON AND THE HOTCAKES FROM THE GRIDDLE
SHE CLEANED THE NIGHT BEFORE
TRUCKERS AND PLOUGHBOYS AND SWEET TALKIN COWBOYS
SHE AIN?T FOUND NOTHIN SHE LIKES MORE
REPEAT
....CHORUS....
Last time: I'M HAVING THE TIME OF MY LIFE WITH THE GAL FROM THE CAFE CASINO
