"The Boom-Boom Gentlemen's Club" lyrics
Chicken fried tenderloin, catfish fillet
Ida is a waitress in an Oakey café
Every day the locals come for breakfast or lunch
They order up the special, but Ida's what they want
(Ida's what they want)
With her baby back home, barely making ends meet
There's a red sparkle dress in the window, 'cross the street
She wants to try it on, gets off at two
But she's scared if it fits, just what she might do
Boom-Boom, Saturday could be dancing in Tulsa
At the Boom-Boom Gentleman's Club, you know where that's at
Boom-Boom, Tulsa's gonna know her as Tassie
'Cause Ida (Boom-Boom) from Ada would never do that
(No, she never do that)
Dakota said he loved her once, maybe still does
Said he woulda married her, but already was (Ooh)
Now she's thinking if that dress fits her just right
What she makes here in a month, she could make it one night (Ooh)
Slip it on, zip it up, try some spike heels
Lookin' in the mirror, kinda likin' how it feels (Ooh)
Get her mom to watch the baby, put some gas in the car (Ooh)
Hopes her old Camaro's gonna make it that far
To the Boom-Boom, Saturday could be dancing in Tulsa
At the Boom-Boom Gentleman's Club, you know where that's at
Boom-Boom, Tulsa's gonna know her as Tassie
'Cause Ida (Boom-Boom) from Ada would never do that
(No, she never do that)
Spotlight, mirror ball, shiny brass pole
Think she'll only do this for a month or so
Techno hip-hop turned up to the max
All she sees are dollar bills and cowboys on hats
Monday, Ida's back serving bacon and eggs
Still a little sore in her shoulders and legs (Ooh)
She hears that door open as Dakota walks in (Ooh)
He says, "I just saw a girl, could've been your twin"
At the Boom-Boom, Saturday, she be dancing in Tulsa
At the Boom-Boom Gentleman's Club, you know where that's at
Boom-Boom, I was glad to hear her name was Tassie
'Cause I knew (Boom-Boom) my little Ida would never do that
And then she poured a whole pot of hot coffee in his lap
(Then she poured a whole pot of hot coffee in his lap)
Boom-Boom, Saturday she'll be dancing in Tulsa
At the Boom-Boom Gentleman's Club, you know where that's at
Boom-Boom, Tulsa's gonna know her as Tassie
'Cause Ida (Boom-Boom) from Ada would never do that
(No, she never do that)
(Ooh)
