"Stingray Pete" lyrics

"Stingray Pete"

Honey, it's been days
Since the sunrise
Through the smokey haze
Underneath the dark spliff
Down the middle
Don't look the other way
While she's been waiting
Bartender keep the change
Hurry out of town
And she's driving me this way
Caught the LA flu
Now it's time to vaccinate
Down a dusty reservoir
Saddle up a view
On 'cross the velvet
She dances without shoes

When you feel it coming on
You know you've gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you've gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called
Swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

As she moves in a way
Got the neon space
Drowned a man in petrol
With a smile on his face
She always know
Just how far to leave him
But keeps him close enough
So he can never escape

When you feel it coming on
You know you've gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you've gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called
Swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

Oh yeah, he's got the key
Yeah, he's got the key
Ride on tonight
Yeah, he's got the key
Oh, he's got the key
Ride on

When you feel it coming on
You know you've gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you've gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called
Swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down

When you feel it coming on
You know you've gotta chase it
Bartender, something strong
Girl, you've gotta taste it forever
Stingray Pete just called
Swimming up a stream
The night is always young
As long as she keeps breaking down
