Sitting in a downtown discotheque
Saw a cute little girl that stole my breath away
Line of guys that had the eyes on her
To my surprise she said 'i beg you sir'
I stay
I thought I had it made
Sat at a table for a couple of drinks
Moving closer and she kissed my neck
That's when I knew that I was in with a chance
Records were a playing and she asked for a dance
They played
I thought I had it made
- guitar break -
We were a swinging to the moody blues
Looked into my eyes I thought I blew a fuse
Music stopped playing the lights went out
Dropped my drink when I heard them shout
It's a raid
I thought I had it made
Hey everybody take a look at me
Didn't come to until a quarter past three
Got no money couldn't put up the bail
Judge said 'son, I'm gonna keep you in jail.'
I stay
I thought I had it made
Thought I had it
I thought I had it made
(repeat to fade)
