Bright Lights And Promises

Bright Lights And Promises A pocket full of dreams That's what they pay me to be Gold lame' and diamonds I'm a hometown queen Honey, would you sing it just for me? When I was good then I was bad I never thought I'd end up this way With no dreams to hide me Bright lights to guide me How long does it take to make the grade? Ev'rywhere I hear a ringing in my ears Drummer, let the music play Small-town blues Make it loud, make it do Listen to the music sway Bar rails and cocktails "Have you got a light?" That's all it pays to keep in sight Overused and much abused Promises of delight Honey, would you care to spend the night? Take a little time Some memories and wine Loosen up the sucker by the bar And if he wants to hold you If he wants to know you Honey,That's what you're here for Until all I see Is them reaching out for me Drummer, play that old time melody Bright lights and promises That's all it's for Leave and enterby the service door Now I'm gold lame' and diamonds Even if the gold is worn Honey, can you show me more?
