Lyrics
Went to a party, the New York style
Attended a party in the New York style
I met a lady, make a sane man wild
Encountered a captivating woman who can drive a sane man wild
She said the words only her lips could say
She expressed intimate words that only her lips could convey
She made me want to throw my life away
Her allure led him to contemplate giving up his life
But when I asked her, she said, "Maybe tomorrow, B.B."
Upon inquiry, she deferred a response, suggesting a potential meeting tomorrow
And that's a story everybody knows
Summarizing the events, acknowledging a commonly known story
I took her flying out across the sea
Took her on a flight across the sea
I thought I had her, I know that she had me
Believed he had her, realizing she had control over him
And when we landed, it was Paris, France
Landed in Paris, France, contemplating a romantic experience
Seemed like a nice place for some French romance
Paris seemed ideal for romance, but her response delayed intimacy
But when I touched her, she said, "Maybe a little later, B.B."
Upon physical contact, she postponed further interaction
And that's the story everybody knows
Reiterating that this is a widely recognized narrative
We went to Berlin, and to Stockholm, too
Traveled to Berlin, Stockholm, Moscow, and the Peking Zoo
And on to Moscow, then to the Peking Zoo
Her enthusiasm for travel was insatiable
As far as travel, she couldn't get too much
Received limited intimacy in Oakland
Somewhere in Oakland, she let me have just a little touch
She cited a beauty appointment, a headache, and a potential flu
And then she said, "I'm late for beauty appointment,
Explained her unavailability, providing reasons for not being fully engaged
I've got a headache, and I believe I'm coming down with the flu."
Conveyed her late arrival for a beauty appointment and health concerns
And that's the story everybody knows
Affirming that this is a narrative widely known to everyone
