  • David Lee Roth The Dogtown Shuffle Lyrics

           

    Keep your eyes wide open, babe

    If you decide to take the long walk

    My city screams of danger

    And you're on borrowed time

    It comes from a jealous clock

    And you're a permanent stranger

    So the last of the wild frontier kings

    Is held for further questioning

    When nothing's left but death and taxes

    The matter of the real fact is

    You go through life as someone's doormat

    Cause you don't get no sportin' chance

    There ain't much distance 'tween a pat on the back

    And a kick in the pants



    You do the Dogtown Shuffle

    Now do you talk the talk?

    Yes I do!

    I do the Dogtown Shuffle

    But can you walk the walk?



    Lemme see ya do it one time...

    Some self-made guy gets it in the ass

    At the local mini-mall

    Looks more like a warning than an example

    And late at night

    They said he used to sleep the sleep of the just

    I sleep the sleep of the just after

    They said the wild boys go head to head

    And like the good book says be quick or dead!

    So ante up or let 'em go

    Cause I'm filing charges on your soul

    It's just a joke and you're the punchline

    Yeah, the streets are a million laughs

    And if I must, well in, God I trust

    Everybody else gotta pay cash...



    You do the Dogtown Shuffle

    But can you talk the talk?

    Let me hear ya!

    You do the Dogtown Shuffle

    But can you walk the walk?



    Now purely off the record, man...

    Yeah, I figured I was gonna go down

    And get a little breakfast

    At the local Taco Truck

    Yeah, my guise could use some refinement

    But I'm on a self improvement kick these days

    So what the fuck?

    Hey man, there was a line behind me

    A line behind me...

    Yeah they always try to nail ya

    Mom, God, Pie the whole routine

    Well here's a little trick that'll never fail ya

    In your time of need



    You do the Dogtown Shuffle

    Yeah, can you talk the talk, baby?

    You do the Dogtown Shuffle

    Lemme see you walk the walk!

    Walk it!



    Are ya, are ya, are ya ready boots?

    Start walkin'

    Scuse me, but I'm new in town

    I was wonderin' if I could get directions to your place?

    There goes the neighborhood...
