Lido Shuffle
Lido's Road to Redemption: A Musical Tale of Risk and Reward
Lyrics
Lido missed the boat that day he left the shack
Lido missed an opportunity when he left the shack.
But that was all he missed
That missed opportunity was the only thing he missed, and he has no intention of returning.
And he ain't comin' back
He's not planning to go back.
At a tombstone bar, in a juke joint car he made a stop
He stopped at a bar that feels like a place associated with funerals, in a car resembling a place with a jukebox.
Just long enough to grab a handle off the top
He paused briefly to grab a drink.
Next stop Chi town, Lido put the money down, let 'em roll
He arrived in Chicago and put some money down for a gamble.
He said one more job ought to get it
He believes one more task will help them achieve their goal.
One last shot 'fore we quit it
He wants one final attempt before giving up.
One for the road
He wants to do one more thing before leaving.
Lido
Refers to Lido.
Whoah oh oh oh
Expresses excitement or emphasis related to Lido.
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido is interested in money and attention.
Lido's waitin' for the go, Lido
Lido is waiting for the signal to move forward.
Whoah oh oh oh oh oh
Expresses excitement or emphasis related to Lido.
He said one more job ought to get it
He believes one more task will help them achieve their goal.
One last shot 'fore we quit it
He wants one final attempt before giving up.
One more for the road
He wants to do one more thing before leaving.
Lido will be runnin', havin' great big funnin' till he got the note
Lido was having fun until he received a warning.
Sayin' toe the line or blow it and that was all she wrote
He was instructed to adhere to the rules or face consequences.
He'll be makin' like a bee line, headin' for the border line, goin' for broke
He's moving quickly towards a risky situation.
Sayin' one more hit ought to do it
He thinks one more attempt will solve his problems.
This joint ain't nothin' to it
He considers the situation easy.
One more for the road
He wants to do one more thing before leaving.
Lido
Refers to Lido.
Whoah oh oh oh
Lido is interested in money and attention.
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido is waiting for the signal to move forward.
Lido's waitin' for the go, Lido
Expresses excitement or emphasis related to Lido.
Whoah oh oh oh oh oh
-One more job ought to get it
He believes one more task will help them achieve their goal.
One last shot then we quit it
He wants one final attempt before giving up.
One more for the road
He wants to do one more thing before leaving.
Lido
Refers to Lido.
Woah oh oh oh
Expresses excitement or emphasis related to Lido.
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido is interested in money and attention.
Lido's waitin' for the go, Lido
Lido is waiting for the signal to move forward.
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Expresses excitement or emphasis related to Lido.
One more job ought to get it
He believes one more task will help them achieve their goal.
