Zanzibar

Ali dances and the audience applauds

Though he's bathed in sweat, he hasn't lost his style

Ali, don't you go downtown

You gave away another round for free

Whoa



Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar

But the waitress always serves a secret smile, whoa

She's waiting out in Shantytown

She's gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me



I've got the old man's car

I've got a jazz guitar

I've got a tab at Zanzibar

Tonight, that's where I'll be, I'll be



Rose, he knows he's such a credit to the game

But the Yankees grab the headlines every time

Melodrama's so much fun

In black and white for everyone to see

Whoa



Me, I'm trying just to get to second base

And I'd steal it if she only gave the sign, whoa

She's gonna give the go-ahead

The inning isn't over yet for me, for me



I've got the old man's car

I've got a jazz guitar

I've got a tab at Zanzibar

Tonight, that's where I'll be, I'll be



INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE



Tell the waitress I'll come back to Zanzibar

I'll be hiding in the darkness with my beer, whoa

She's waiting out in Shantytown

She's gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me



I've got the old man's car

I've got a jazz guitar

I've got a tab at Zanzibar

Tonight, that's where I'll be, I'll be
