- Pumpin' For Jill Lyrics / with translationsWhen I'm asleep, you touch my feet
You let me know that I am no creep
Because I love you, you are for real
I'm gonna stay here - pumping for Jill
In the gas station where I work
Everyone treats me just like a jerk
Nobody offers me a tip
I'm gonna stay here - pumping Jill's hips...
I met you out at the Mardi Gras
On a French Quarter sidewalk
When you kissed me, it was strong
I wonder if you'll hear this song
La da da da da da, da da da da...
You let me know that I am no creep
Because I love you, you are for real
I'm gonna stay here - pumping for Jill
In the gas station where I work
Everyone treats me just like a jerk
Nobody offers me a tip
I met you out at the Mardi Gras
On a French Quarter sidewalk
When you kissed me, it was strong
I wonder if you'll hear this song
La da da da da da, da da da da...
