[Verse 1]
We flew into town on Sunday
Had to find a place by Monday
Tried Bridgeport and Westport
Found a place that we thought would do
157 Riverside Avenue
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Saugatuck River's flowin'
Mother Nature's colors were showin'
So cold, so rainy, we couldn't help feelin' blue
Not enough time, too many things to do
Get on, baby
[Verse 3]
We met a young girl on Main Street
Wanted just to pass her by
She was homely but so lonely
She said, "Can I make love to you?"
We shouted, "157 Riverside Avenue"
Alright
[Verse 4]
It's over, Miss Lena, we're leaving
Such a pleasant stay, I must say
So nice, so easy
We hate to say goodbye to you
At 157 Riverside Avenue, yeah
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Woo, come on, babe
That's right, aw yeah
Move over, honey
