Advance Romance (Live At Hordern Pavilion, Sydney/1976)

No more credit from the liquor store
Suit is all dirty, my shoes is all wore
Tired and lonely, my heart is all sore
Advance romance
I can't stand it no more

She told me she loved me, I believed what she said
Took me for a sucker boy, all corn-fed

Next thing I knew, she had a bolt on the door
Advance romance
I can't use it no more

She took André's watch, like they always do (it was a Timex, too)
(Wa-hoo-hoo-wa-hah-hoo-hoo)
And shame on you
No more money, boy (I shoulda knew)
I tried to tell you (well, I didn't listen)
He wouldn't listen to me (I couldn't listen to ya)
I said look it here, when you go to Australia
Don't be messin' around with no kangaroos and the sheep and lamb

The way she do me, boy

She might do you, too

The way she do me, boy

She might do you, too

The way she do me, boy

She might do you, too
Now, look what she did to André tonight, with that wig and everything

Advance romance
Oh, people we are through

Potato-head Bobby was a friend of mine
Opened three of his eyes in the food stamp line
He opened four of his eyes in the food stamp line
He opened three of his eyes in the food stamp line
He opened six of his eyes in the food stamp line

But, Frank, you know she might be a devil
They go blue poppin' eyes, might be a devil
Horns, little thing in the wagon
Might be a devil, little thing, pointed wagon, you know

Advance romance
He wanna try it one time
He said he don't mind

Later that night he drop on by
Told her all he want to do is climb up and say "Hi"
(Hi-hi hi-hi-hi-hi hi-hi-hi-hi hi-hi-hi hi-hi-hi)
Half an hour later she had frenched his fry

Advance romance
Bobby, say goodbye

Advance romance
Bobby, say goodbye
