Spanish MoonRobert Palmer

Songwriter: Lowell George

Producer: Steve Smith

One two
Well the night that I got into town
Was the night that the rain froze on the ground
Comin' down the street I heard such a sorrowful tune
Comin' from the place they called the spanish moon

Well I stepped inside, and I stood by the door
While dark-eyed girls sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers, filled up the room
This was the place they called the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ? ? train
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon

Well I sold my watch and I pawned my ring
Just to hear that girl sing
'bout the news my whole ? ? rose soon
'bout the news down at the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ? ? train
If that don't kill me soon the women will down at the spanish moon
Oh oh give it

What if I said, can you get to the end it's a ? ? situation
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon
Oh oh, give it to me please, whoa

Well I stepped inside, and I stood by the door
A dark-eyed girl sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers, filled up the room
This was the place they called the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ? ? train
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon

Robert Palmer

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
