Surrender To The Rhythm - Brinsley Schwarz

Well they danced to every tune the band could play

And just about midnight they decided to call it a day

Now there’s one thing that’s left on their minds, yeah yeah yeah

They’ve got a little slice, at any price yeah

They stole the shoes and rice

And surrendered to the rhythm that is calling them home

Oh she was dumb she was dirty yeah, but she was a princess

Custom made and could fit right into his arms

She could thrill him she could chill him, woh down to the bone

But he was in his teens yeah, he had to spill the beans

Still looking for ways and means

Surrendered to the rhythm calling him home

Well who’s to say if it’s right or wrong

Not another singer in another song

I say we’re doing alright

Yeah we’re doing ok

Ooh now guess what, guess what happened, guess what happened then

She had to go said she was meeting up with one of her friends

So it was nothing more or less than another mess of the blues

But he had more to lose, started putting in clues

Oh yeah paying his dues

Surrendered to the rhythm that is calling him home

Surrender to the rhythm

Surrender to the rhythm

Surrender to the rhythm

Surrender yeah to the rhythm
