Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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, woah [Pre-Chorus 1] Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar But the waitress always serves a secret smile, woah She's waiting out in Shantytown She's gonna pull the curtains down for me For me [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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, woah [Pre-Chorus 2] Me, I'm trying just to get to second base And I'd steal it if she only gave the sign, woah She's gonna give the go ahead The inning isn't over yet for me For me [Chorus] 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] [Pre-Chorus 1] Tell the waitress I'll come back to Zanzibar I'll be hiding in the darkness with my beer, woah She's waiting out in Shantytown She's gonna pull the curtains down for me For me [Chorus] 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 Outro]
