Yankee Rose

Lyrics

David, what?
 Where are you at?
 Well, let me roll up on to the sidewalk and take a look, yes
 Whoa, she's beautiful
 I'm talking about a Yankee Rose
 And she looks wild, wild, wild, wild
 Are you ready for the new sensation?
 Well, here's the shot heard 'round the world
 All you back room boys salute when her flag unfurls
 Well, guess who's back in circulation?
 Now, I don't know what you may have heard
 But what I need right now's the original good time girl
 She's a vision from coast to coast (coast to coast)
 Sea to shining sea (sea to shining sea)
 Hey sister, you're the perfect host (perfect host)
 Show me your bright lights
 In your city lights, alright
 I'm talkin' 'bout the Yankee Rose
 Bright lights in your city lights, alright
 I'm talkin' 'bout it
 When she walks, watch, the sparks will fly
 Firecrackin' on the fourth of July
 No sad songs tonight, something's in the air (it will be like cancer)
 A real state of independence
 So pretty when her rockets glare
 Still provin' any night that her flag's still there
 She's a vision from coast to coast (coast to coast)
 Sea to shining sea (sea to shining sea)
 Hey sister, you're the perfect host (make a toast)
 Show me your bright lights
 In your city lights, alright
 I'm talkin' 'bout the Yankee Rose
 Bright lights in your city lights, alright
 I'm in love with the Yankee Rose
 Ah, she's beautiful, alright
 Mmm, nothin' like her in the whole world
 Yeah
 She's right on time, I'm on the case
 Pick up the phone, no time to waste
 She got the beat
 And here's a little bit comin' your way
 ♪
 Raise 'em up there, let's see who salutes, baby
 Little bit, little bit, little bit higher
 Here's the mast, swing 'em from here
 ♪
 I wanna get a little bit of apple pie, man
 Bright lights, city lights
 Bright lights, city lights
 Bright lights, city lights
