about

Named after my favorite Truck Stop / Strip Club in Alabama. This is a love song from the heart, that took much research and devotion to get it 'just right'.

lyrics

THE BOOBIE BUNGALOW GENTLEMEN'S CLUB

I pulled off of '65
Dirty and dog-tired
And down on my luck
Been driving for days
And i could not explain
What hit the brakes on that ole truck
Like the North Star in the night sky
Guiding me for miles to that neon sign

Chorus:
Down to the Booble Bungalow Gentelmen's Club
Where I fell in love
There's truck stop romancing, exotic couch dancing
While you fill your Semi up
No hometown to judge you
No rejection from lost love
Down at the Boobie Bungalow Club

Her stage name was 'Rain'
This Goddess who came
With these messy strings attached
Like a nine year old boy
An ex-husband in Detroit
Who very much wanted her back
Like me she was past prime
But like morning rain to me she still shined

Chorus:

Shattered glass hit the stage
As the beer splashed my face
That club filled up with fisticuffs
I blew 'Rain' a kiss as I crawled out through that side door
Hit '65 on two wheels in my old Ford

Chorus
