Coolsville

• written by Rickie Lee Jones

  
  

  I and Braggar, and Junior Lee,
  well that's the way we always thought it would be
  In the Winston lips of September, how we met
  Decked out like aces, we'd beat anybody's bet

  Cuz we was Coolsville... cuz we was Coolsville

  Well you stick it here;
  you stick it over there;
  it never fits

  And now the hungry night wants more and more
  and you're chippyin' your little kiss.
  I jumped all his jokers,
  but he trumped all my tricks

  But I swear to God I thought this one was smart enough to stick it into Coolsville...
  and stick it into Coolsville...
  Ooh, Daddy, stick it into Coolsville

  So now it's J and B, and me,
  That sounds close,
  but it ain't the same
  but that's okay
  Hot City don't hurt that much
  When everything feels the same
  Well the real thing come and the real thing go...
  Well the Real Thing is Back in Town...
  Ask me if you wanna know The way to Coolsville...
  I hear you wanna go back to Coolsville?
  Then come on, I'll take you back... to Coolsville.
