Play Dirty
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The boys in the back room
Billy shooting pool
Trading dirty glances
With the pretty boys playing cool
They're puttin' down the whiskey
Getting loaded tonight
It's gettin' kinda risky
They're lookin' to fight
If you want action
If you want a thrill
Then take it down to Jimmy's
Bar & Grill
And play dirty
And dirty games too
Play dirty
Like dirty boys do
Act tough!
Well, Tatoo Willy's happenin'
He really makes a scene
He's got anything you like
If you know what I mean
Trouble's up
When the heat comes down
'Cause down at Jimmy's
They're not messin' around
They play dirty
And dirty games too
Play dirty
Like dirty boys do
Come on, Man,
Let's take this right outside
Come on, Sucker,
Hit it!
No Guitar Solo Yet
The place is gettin' restless
There's trouble in the air
All hell's about to break loose
But dirty punks just don't care
They want action
They want a thrill
They take it down to Jimmy's
Bar & Grill
And play dirty
And dirty games too
They Play dirty
Like dirty boys do
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
Play dirty
