Balinese Lyrics by ZZ Top

Balinese Lyrics

    Deep in the South of Texas
    not so long ago,
    there on a crowded island
    in the Gulf of Mexico

    it didn't take too much money,
    man, but it sure was nice.
    You could dance all night if you felt all right,
    drinking whiskey and throwing dice.

    And everybody knows
    it was hard to leave.
    And everybody knows
    it was down at the Balinese.

    Yeah, I remember Ruby,
    she always dressed in red
    wearing skintight pants, Lord, and how she could dance
    with a rag wrapped around her head.

    And everybody knows
    it was hard to leave.
    And everybody knows
    it was down at the Balinese.

    And everybody knows
    it was hard to leave.
    And everybody knows
    it was down at the Balinese,
    it was down at the Balinese,
    it was down at the Balinese.
