Steve Forbert - Steve Forbert's Midsummer Night's To lyrics

.Here's to all you all you lucky dogs, it's heads or tails Here's to all you filthy rich, I wish you well Here's to all the pretty women made for cash And here's to dashing daddy's son he's such a flash. Well, I been lookin' and walkin' 'round the Sunset square Singin' an' talkin' with my friends down there Sittin' an' lis'nin' with a young man's ear To all the rainbow dreams Here's to all the sh**ty jobs that I despise Here's to two-bit guarantees and other lies Here's to roads of burning tar and hot cement Here's to money in my hand and where it went Well, I got my fingers a-tapping on the hard Stone steps I'm waiting for lightning and the rains to fall Young lovers are loafin' with their sidewalk smiles And all their rainbow dreams Amy Alice in the Summer With a sack lunch and a punch card See my sister with a drag job Man, she feels like she's a hundred years ago Here's to people living lives that they regret Work your fingers to the bone and sink in debt Here's to all those shaky tricks that hustlers try You know their easy money is oft' times hard They flash a grin an' they wink their eye, well I been livin' an' breathin' in the rat trap town Tryna get over where the wall breaks down Holdin' my head up with my thin tired arms And all my rainbow dreams
