Lady Monroe Lyrics

Born 45 years too late

If history repeats

All I have to do is wait

Wrong era wrong stage wrong time

Shine on me limelight, I'll be in my prime

Lady Monroe, you stole the whole show, but I was a no go

Johnny Coltrane, with the blues and the soul train, still playing the old game

The last of the pin-up dolls, so full of grace before the fall, the last dance at a teenage ball

The boys from the Rat Pack, so slick so smooth and always dressed in black, tripping up the dames with a heart attack

A new revolution in white and black

A curl of your lip, a shake of your hips, there's no turning back

Girls fainting, gasping for air

So please do the voodoo that you do with a flick of your hair

You think we'll ever get that feeling to return?

Or was it the last, a blast from the past

Now it's crash and burn

Wrong era wrong stage wrong time

Shine on me limelight, I'll be in my prime

Lady Monroe you stole the whole show, but I was a no go

Johnny Coltrane, with the blues and the soul train, still playing the old game

The last of the pin-up dolls, so full of grace before the fall, the last dance at a teenage ball

The boys from the Rat Pack, so slick so smooth and always dressed in black, tripping up the dames with a heart a attack
