Moonlight and vodka
Chris de Burgh
Fix me a drink make it a strong one Hey comrade a drink make it a long one My hands are shaking and my feet are numb My head is aching and the bar’s going round And I’m so down in this foreign town. Tonight there’s a band it ain’t such a bad one Play me a song don’t make it a sad one I can’t even talk to these Russian girls The beer is lousy and the food is worse And it’s so damn cold yes it’s so damn cold I know it’s hard to believe But I haven’t been warm for a week; Moonlight and vodka takes me away Midnight in Moscow is lunchtime in L.A. Ooh play boys play... Espionage is a serious business Well I’ve had enough of this serious business That dancing girl is making eyes at me I’m sure she’s working for the K.G.B. In this paradise ah cold as ice; Moonlight and vodka takes me away Midnight in Moscow is sunshine in L.A. Yes in the good old U.S.A.
