The Ballad of Michael Valentine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Michael plays with stars
Soul Sister won't you take a ride in his car
Late to call
When you wanted to be all
Baby, baby, don't be so shy
Rock children hold your heads up high
In the night while I try
And tell the ballad of Valentine

You got it bad, but you know it's true

[Verse 2]
I caught up with a friend in Dallas
We took a trip to New Orleans
Those black-eyed ladies
Won't say they're sorry

[Verse 3]
We finally caught a train to Memphis
Where everybody talks the same
Those blue suede babies
All know my name

[Chorus]
And I said hold tight
Can't you see that it's hurting me
But I've got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Michael Valentine, can't we unite?

[Verse 4]
We ended up in North Dakota
Although my heart's in Mexico
My muñequita
Abre tus ojos

[Verse 5]
With your new suit, and your black tie
Hold on, you're just a gambling man, all proper like
I broke to the right and I caught your eye
Shut your mouth and wave goodbye
Tonight, I am not going to let you rain on this parade

[Chorus]
And I said hold tight
Can't you see that it's hurting me
But I've got the buzz
Like Marlon Brando
Straight-faced with misery tonight

[Verse 6]
And I will not lie when I say I am not cold no more
But I've got the buzz
Like Greta Garbo
Walking forwards in the sun
And I've got a coat tail left to ride

[Outro]
Well uh oh
I know he's going to be there tonight
