Virginia Plain Lyrics - Roxy Music

Make me a deal and make it straight 

All signed and sealed, I'll take it 

To Robert E. Lee, I'll show it 

I hope and pray he don't blow it, 'cause 

We've been around a long time 

Just tryin' to, tryin' to, tryin' to 

Make the big time 

Take me on a roller coaster 

Take me for an airplane ride 

Take me for a six day wonder, but don't you 

Don't you throw my pride aside, besides 

What's real and make believe 

Baby Jane's in Acapulco 

We are flyin' down to Rio 

Throw me a line, I'm sinking fast 

Clutching at straws, can't make it 

Havana sound were trying 

Hard edge the hipster jiving 

Last picture shows down the drive-in 

You're so sheer, you're so chic 

Teenage rebel of the week 

Flavors of the mountain streamline 

Midnight blue, casino floors 

Dance the Cha-cha through till sunrise 

Opens up exclusive doors, oh wow! 

Just like flamingos look the same 

So me and you, just we two 

Got to search for something new 

Far beyond the pale horizon 

Some place near the desert strand 

Where my Studebaker takes me 

That's where I'll make my stand, but wait 

Can't you see that Holzer mane? 

What's her name, Virginia Plain
