When Lion arrived Santa Pola
And he was no more than a student child
The sun came up and girls where a-walkin’
Down by the boardwalk side
He couldn’t find a room to sleep
So he had to sleep at beach that night
He wake up and he was naked
But Lion felt so fine
(Instrumental)
Lion took the bus lookin’ for a cola
So he went into a bar
Neon lights flashin’ in his eyes
While the vermins were servin’ whiskey jugs
Whiskey was cold, whiskey was the only
‘Cause the cola was at its last
Lion got drunk like never before
Lion felt so fine
A couple of friends
And a couple of songs by Gram
Was all they needed to talk and dance
The White Labelers arrived Santa Pola
At the same time he gave up Coca-Cola
Captain Winston is going to the drugstore
Lookin’ for coke and pills
Lion’s eyes glistenin’ in front of the sea
In a way they’d never seen
Flywheel Jack is workin’ at the club
Where Lady Cain sings tonight
Flywheel Jack talked her about Lion
They will feel so fine…
A couple of friends
And a couple of songs by Gram
Was all they needed to talk and dance
The White Labelers arrived Santa Pola
At the same time he gave up Coca-Cola
(Solo)
Lion and White Skin Cain
Captain and his Flywheel friend
A couple of friends
And a couple of songs by Gram
Was all they needed to talk and dance
The White Labelers arrived Santa Pola
At the same time he gave up Coca-Cola
White Labelers!
