Michael plays with starsSoul Sister won't you take a ride in his carLate to callWhen you wanted to be allBaby baby don't be so shyRock children hold your heads up highIn the night while I tryAnd tell the ballad of ValentineYou got it bad, but you know it's trueI caught up with a friend in DallasWe took a trip to New OrleansThose black-eyed ladiesWon't say they're sorryWe finally caught a train to MemphisWhere everybody talks the sameThose blue suede babiesAll know my nameAnd I said hold tightCan't you see that it's hurting meBut I've got the buzzLike Marlon BrandoMichael Valentine, can't we unite?We ended up in North DakotaAlthough my heart's in Mexico(spanish language) My munecitaAbren Tus OjosWith your new suit, and your black tieHold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper likeI broke to the right and I caught your eyeShut your mouth and wave goodbyeTonight, I ain't gonna let you rain on this paradeAnd I said hold tightCan't you see that it's hurting meBut I've got the buzzLike Marlon BrandoStraight faced with misery tonightAnd I will not lie when I say I ain't cold no moreBut I've got the buzzLike Greta GarboWalking forward to the sunAnd I've got a coattail left to rideWell uh ohI know he's gonna be there tonight
