Jonathan Richman I Was Dancing in the Lesbian Bar Lyrics

CHORDS:
INTRO: Dm
Well I was dancing at a night-club one Friday night
And that night-club bar was a little uptight
Yeah, I was dancing all alone a little self-conscious
When some kids came up and said, "for dancing, come with us"
CHORUS:
And soon, I was dancing in a lesbian bar, ah ooh
I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh oh
Guitar:
VERSE:
Well they took me to the lesbian bar in the industrial zone
I was dancing with my friends and dancing alone
Well the first bar things were alright
But in this bar, things were Friday night
In the first bar things were just alright
This bar things were Friday night
CHORUS:
And I was dancing in a lesbian bar, ah ooh
I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh oh
VERSE:
Well I was dancing in the lesbian bar, way downtown
I was there to check the scene and hang around
Well, the first bar things were stop and stare
But in this bar things were laissez-faire
In the first bar things were stop and stare
In this bar things were laissez-faire
repeat HORUS
Guitar:
In the first bar folks were drinking sips
But in this bar they could shake their hips,
In the first bar they were drinking sips
In this bar they could shake their hips
HORUS
And I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh
I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh oh
I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh
I was dancing in a lesbian bar, oh oh oh
Well, in the first bar, things were okay
But in this bar things were more my way
In the first bar things were just okay
In this bar things were done my way
repeat HORUS
Well, in the first bar, things were so controlled
But in this bar things were rock-and-roll
In the first bar, things were so controlled
In this bar things were way way bold
repeat HORUS
