Lyrics The Left Banke

The Left Banke

Evening Gown

The butler opened the parlor door

I took my coat and approached the floor

A door opened at the top of the stairs

A sexy lady she was a-standing there

I stumbled and turned around to see

Her evening gown

Said yeah, alright!

She said forward your love was there

The light was on the jewels in her hair

The only sign gettin' down on my chest

I start to mumble on the way to address

I made the way up and down upon

Her evening gown

Said yeah, alright!

Oh

Mmm-hmm, alright

The door was on the touch of her feet

Her eyes were wide and her hands petite

I knew I didn't stand a breath of a chance

With all her will she gave me a glance

She won't throw me out, I turned around to meet

Her evening gown

Said yeah, wowwwwwww!

The butler opened the parlor door

I took my coat and approached the floor

A door opened at the top of the stairs

A sexy lady she was a-standing there

I stumbled in and turned around to see

Her evening gown
