It was, well anyway
And I didn't know these kids
And one of them, we were playing the other week in Texas
We started here
And getting Texas lots
And Texas is cool
And one of these
After the show
At this place called the Cactus Cafe
A guy came up and said
Remember me, my name is George
I'm one of those guys when there was about
Two boys, and two girls
They were boys and girls then but
That was about
He said I was one of those people who
Invited you to the lesbian bar
I said 'all right!']

I was dancing in the lesbian bar oh oh
I was dancing in the lesbian bar oh oh
[And now we can ???]
Yeah
Well they took me to the lesbian bar
In the industrial zone
They took me to dance with them
Or dance alone
Well in the first bar things were all right
But in this bar, things were Friday night
In the first bar things were just all right
In this bar things were Friday night
I was dancing in a lesbian bar oh oh

[One more thing]
[It got late at night at the lesbian bar
When I showed up with those kids
I didn't know it was probably midnight
By this time now it was about three thirty AM
There at the lesbian bar there was a gay bar next door
Which unloaded into the lesbian bar
When they closed at two
So now it was for all kinds of people there
And everyone started to blur the distinctions between every type of sexuality
And people were just, it was almost four
Everyone was tired at four o'clock
No one thought who was what
Everyone was just dancing and flirting with everyone
More or less]
[Then the Johnson's wax guy came on the big wax machine
To get everybody out of there
On the little thing that you ride around the place
Make a lot of noise, except all the bass from the bass speakers
Was so loud you couldn't even hear him anyway
So everyone said 'stay'
There was about fourteen people left, it was getting cold in there
They left all the doors open
To get you out of there
4:15 or 4:20 AM]
Well in the first bar things were all right
But in this bar, things were Friday night
In the first bar things were just all right
In this bar things were Friday night
I was dancing in a lesbian bar oh oh

Well I was dancing in a night club one Friday night
And that night club bar was a little uptight
Well I was dancing all alone feeling a little bit self conscious
When some kids came up and said, "Jonathan, you look like you want atmosphere for dancing"
I said "yeah"
They said "well come with us"
