Steely Dan — Hey Nineteen lyrics

Lyrics

Way back when in Sixty seven
I was the dandy of Gamm Chi
Sweet things from Boston so young and willing
Moved down to Scarsdale where the hell am I Hey Nineteen
No we can’t dance together
No we can’t talk at all
Please take me along when you slide on down
Hey Nineteen that’s 'Retha Franklin
She don’t remember the Queen of Soul
It’s hard times befallen the sole survivors
She thinks I’m crazy I’m just growing old
Hey Nineteen
No we got nothin' in common
No we can’t talk at all
Please take me along when you slide on down
Ad libbed lines
Nice, sure looks good,
Hm hm hmm, skate a little lower now
The Cuervo Gold
The fine Columbian
Make tonight a wonderful thing
The Cuervo Gold
The fine Columbian
Make tonight a wonderful thing
The Cuervo Gold
The fine Columbian
Make tonight a wonderful thing
We can’t dance together
No we can’t talk at all.
