Billy Joel “Zanzibar”

Ali dances and the audience applauds 
Though he's beathed in sweat he hasn't lost his style 
Ali don't you go downtown 
You gave away another round for free 

Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar 
But the waitress always serves a secret smile 
She's waiting out in Shantytown 
She's gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me 

CHORUS 
I've got the old man's car, 
I've got a jazz guitar 
I've got a tab at Zanzibar 
Tonight that's where I'll be 

Rose, he knows he's such a credit to the game 
But the Yankees grab the headlines every time 
Melodrama's so much fun 
In black and white for everyone to see 
Me, I'm trying just to get to second base 
And I'd steal it if she only gave the sign 
She's gonna give the go ahead 
The inning isn't over yet for me 

CHORUS 

Tell the waitress I'll come back to Zanzibar 
I'll be hiding inthe darkness with my beer. 
She's waiting out in Shantytown 
She's gonna pull the curtaains down for me, for me 

CHORUS
