For The Sake Of The Song lyrics

This place ain`t fit for a jukebox, let alone a band

We`re lookin` good in our sequined shirts and neon tans

Turn down the lights, let`s strike up the band boys, it`s Saturday night

This smokey air can lead to love affairs and at least one fight

I strap on my guitar feelin` a twinge of that old stage fright

Ready and willin` to do it right--for the sake of the song

Play the music, let the rhythms flow, pour out your soul

Do a little country, rhythm and blues and rock and roll

Hand me that towel, God Almighty ain`t it hot up here

Hey Waitress, would you bring me another shot and a beer

Rainbow of color forms in the sweat fallin` in my eyes

Reminding me of the tears I`ve cried Bfor the sake of the song

Spotlight the singer making him look like he`s all alone

While he`s making love to the melody with the microphone

Do one for us and one for the crowd, they want to dance

That girl down there, she`s looking up here with signs of romance

Harmonies changing keys, guitar playing fast and strong

And we`re ready to do it all night long--for the sake of the song

For the sake of the song
