Third Rate Romance

The Amazing Rythmn Aces were a great group with some fabulous musicians. This is one

of their best and one of my favorites. Hope y'all like it.

Third Rate Romance, Low Rent Rendezvous

Settin' at a tiny table in a ritzy restaurant, She was starin' at her coffee cup,

He was tryin' to keep his courage up while 'plying booze.

The talk was small when they talked at all they both knew what they want.

There was no need to talk about it,

They were old enough to start without it and keep it smooth.

She said, "You don't look like my type but I guess you'll do."

When they left the bar, they got in his car and they drove away.

^

He drove to the Family Inn, She didn't even have to pretend she didn't know what for.

^ ^

Then he went to the desk and made his request while she waited outside.

^

When he came back with the key, she said give it to me and I'll unlock the door.

^ ^

She kept sayin', "I've never really done this kind of thing before, have you?"
