Jus' Like Brigitte Bardot

Lyrics：Joshua Kadison Music：Joshua Kadison
Neffertiti came out west in a stolen limousine.
Twenty dollars to her name and a walk like you aint never seen.
She moved into number eight with just a bottle in her hand,
an old radio wrapped up in its cord and no particular plan.
I watched her in the hallway. She blew me a little kiss
and said, 'Hey, baby, whats a boy like you, doin in a place like this?'
Then she said, 'Well, I hate to be the one to have to give you the news,
but this world aint nothin but a one way ticket to the blues .'
Chorus:
Then she said, 'Baby,' she said, 'Baby...
Baby, can you help me find a soul station on this old radio?
And we can steal us a little salvation if you got no place else to go.
Oh, baby, can you help me find a soul station? Im feeling kinda low
and if you use your...use your magination,
baby, I dance jus like Brigitte Bardot.'
I was sweepin a warehouse floor cross town midnight to eight.
If my ship was ever comin in, it sure was dockin late.
Neffertiti was dancin six nights at a club jut off the strip.
After work wed meet for breakfast, Id help her count up all her tips.
Shed stuff some money in my pocket and say, 'Baby, go back home.
Now what you tryin to prove, boy, in this city all alone.
Then she said, 'Well, I hate to be the one to have to give you the news,
but this world aint nothin but a one way ticket to the blues.'
CHORUS
Spoken:
Shed say, 'Mamma must be worried sick about you.'
Shed make me send home letters every... bout every month or so.
So Id be there writing at her kitchen table
and Neffertitid be dancin to the sweet soul music playin on her radio.
'Mamma wants to rock you, rock you slow,
to the sweet soul music on the radio.'
CHORUS
Neffertiti came out west in a stolen limousine
