Christie Lee (unreleased Version) Lyrics - Billy Joel

Let me tell you a story 

About a woman and a man 

Maybe you will find familiar 

Maybe you won't understand 

The man's name I don't remember 

He was always joe to me 

But I can't forget the woman 

She was always christie lee 

He was working in a night club 

That's where he played the saxophone 

He used to fake to stock arrangements 

He left the customers alone 

But one night before the last song 

About a quarter after three 

He saw her standing at the coat check 

And made his move on christie lee

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Christie lee, christie lee 

Christie lee, christie lee 

She was a nice piece of music 

She had a rhythm all her own 

He blew a solo like a blind man 

She really dug his saxophone 

She wanted more than just an encore 

And he could play in every key 

He left the stage and packed his alto 

And he took it home with christie lee 

Oh I heard the man knew the bird like the bible 

You know the man could blow an educated axe 

He couldn't see that christie lee was a woman 

Who didn't need another lover 

All she wanted was the sax 

Photos 

It took a while for him to notice 

It took a while for him to see 

He was never in control here 

It was always christie lee 

Christie lee, christie lee 

Christie lee, christie lee 

Oh the man took a calculated gamble 

Yes the man had the power to perform 

But christie lee was more than he knew how to handle 

She didn't need him as a man 

All she wanted was the horn 

They say that joe became a wino 

They say he always drinks alone 

They say he stumbles like a blind man 

They say he sold his saxophone 

Even the band must face the music 

That's what the moral is to me 

The only time you hit the high note 

Is when you play for christie lee 

Christie lee, christie lee 

Christie lee, christie lee
