Winona

Lucky One
by Alex McMurray Velvety Pod Music (BMI)

Have you seen Winona?

The shimmy queen of arkansas

they know her ‘round new jersey

from tenafly to totowa

but up in salt lake city

where they teach the boys to sing

i hand the man three fifty

and i seen a most wonderful thing

so how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me down on the farm when i’ve seen winona dance?

 

i been to madagascar

but they wasn’t really mad at all

they mostly just pick guitars got their back up against the wall

i went to see ol’ gay paree

plongeuring and cutting hair

did my time at the dmv you know there’s many fine people there

so how you gonna keep me…etc…

 

winona winona you make my dreams come true

my piggly all wiggly when you do that dance you do

winona you are my facination 

you just about bust my imagination    

you gimme just a little but a little ain’t enough

come on winona don’t be so rough

 

down at the family dollar

that’s where i always go

and when winona’s working

the line moves much too slow

i asked her what’s the secret

what keeps you so serene

she said i leave it up on the stage

it keeps my conscience clean

i threw down all my money

my toothpaste and my gin

i said won’t you come with me

we’re on the road again

sometimes we go wrong

sometimes we go right

but when i’m with winona

go dancing every night

 

so how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me?

how you gonna keep me down on the farm when i’ve seen winona dance?
