Virginia Plain

Lyrics

Make me a deal and make it straight
 All signed and sealed, I'll take it
 To Robert E. Lee, I'll show it
 I hope and pray he don't blow it 'cause
 We've been around a long time
 Just tryin' to, tryin' to but you
 Make the big time
 Take me on a roller coaster
 Take me for an airplane ride
 Take me for a six days wonder, but
 Don't you, don't you throw my pride aside besides
 What's real and make-believe
 Baby Jane's in Acapulco
 We are flyin' down to Rio
 ♪
 Throw me a line, I'm sinking fast
 Clutching at straws, can't make it
 Havana sound, we're trying
 A hard edge, the hipster jiving, oh
 Last picture shows down the drive-in
 You're so sheer, you're so chic
 Teenage rebel of the week
 Flavors of the mountain streamline
 Midnight blue casino floors
 Dance the cha-cha through 'til sunrise
 Opens up exclusive doors, oh wow
 Just like flamingos, look the same
 So me and you, just we two
 Got to search for something new
 ♪
 Far beyond the pale horizon
 Some place near the desert strand
 Where my Studebaker takes me
 That's where I'll make my stand, but wait
 Can't you see that Holzer mane
 What's her name? Virginia Plain
