The members of my crew that are doing such a fantastic job for me, ladies and gentlemen
First of all, the young ladies that opened
Downstairs before the show came on

They gon' come in here some night and pull the plug, boys, say
"Get 'em all off the stage, bunch of squirrels"
They really live up to their name, ladies and gentlemen

And the beautiful quartet voices you hear in the back
Belong to the great Imperials, ladies and gentlemen

Oh, well, uh...
You get in the habit of something, you know
When the guys ain't here you miss 'em

Uh, let me see
It's a crazy night tonight, man
Excuse me
We had some chick jump off of the balcony the other night, man
It was, I'm telling you
She said, aahh
It didn't hurt her, you know
She, I don't know how she got down that thing, man, but she came off of that balcony
She crawled on one of those funky little angels legs and said
"Slip down, man", you know
The angel said, "Get off, get off"
Oh, Lord
I gotta get serious now
A record they did very well for me recently
Serious
Did very well for me recently, ladies and gentlemen, it goes like this
