Where The Action Is Lyrics

Where streets start getting wild Well you're moving on down on the other side of the tracks Would you cross that line baby, there ain't no turning back Some raise and I don't ever wanna see that place That's where the action is Listen, hear the stories hear the lies You hear the rooms they criticize They call you everything under the moon Then they try to buy you with diamonds and rings and rings Move over baby gonna help you out of this mess By the look of your face well you been here before I guess You're hanging around, like some kinda parasite on past And I just wanna tell you to come on let's go And I know a place where never cold And I know a place where the thing is sin And I'm gonna tell you where the action is Your momma's told you about whiskey and she's told you about beer ...drink and hear... nothing It turns you into a monster it turns your mind insane It does things to you where you will never come back again I don't care what your disposition is I don't care what's your name I'm gonna tell you where the action is Look at you dressed in your debutante dress and your phoney eye-lashes Walking around like you just walked out of some f*cking car crash You think that you're OK cause you're looking like you're gonna have a smash with the action I don't care where you're going, I don't care what you say, What your religion is Baby, I just wanna tell you where the action is, hey, hey, hey, hey Take off that wedding ring baby, you don't need it anymore Take off that dress girl and throw it out the door Take off those phoney make-up and those eye-lashes I saw Take off your shoes and your hat And throw the whole f*cking lot right out the door Come over here and lend me your ear I'm gonna tell you where the action is I don't care if you can read a book or if you can write I don't care how long your hair is or how bright I don't care about much to tell you the truth but that's allright I only care is if you come on like you think you're with the action I've got only one thing to say: come here darling, kiss me, I'm gonna show you where the action is You spend a little dollar and you spend a little dime You get all funny and you laugh at your friends And you think you're having a good time You don't know nothing till you come around here and have some of mine Then you'll start to understand about the two sides of the line Come over here darling, lend me your ear, gonna educate you Gonna tell you where the action is
