Spanish Moon

(Lowell George)

Well the night that I got into town
Was the night that the rain froze on the ground
Comin’ down the street I heard such a sorrowful tune
Comin’ from the place they called the Spanish Moon

Well I stepped inside and I stood by the door
While dark-eyed girls sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers filled up the room
This was the place they called the Spanish Moon
Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on the goddam train
If then that don’t kill me soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon

Well I sold my watch and I pawned my ring
Just to hear that girl sing
‘Bout to lose my whole bank roll soon
‘Bout to lose it all down at the Spanish Moon
Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on the goddam train
If then that don’t kill me soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon

One false step, and you get done in
It’s a cold situation
If then that don’t kill me soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon

Well I stepped inside and I stood by the door
Dark-eyed girls sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers filled up the room
This was the place they called the Spanish Moon
Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on a goddam train
If then that don’t kill me soon
The women will down at the Spanish Moon
