Top Hat Bar and Grille (and Talk) Songtext
von Jim Croce

Well, if you′re lookin' for a good time
Look hard as you want but you ain′t gonna find
The kinda good time you will
Come every Friday, Saturday evening at the Top Hat Bar and Grille

Well at the Top Hat Bar and Grille
There is a waitress name of Lil
Well, she's a honky tonky
Little bit chunky, divorcee

She wear them tight hippy hugger slacks
You can believe me when I tell you, Jack
That she's a dancin′, prancin′, hard romancin'
P I E C E

And she can do the boogie woogie
She can do the boogaloo
And she can do the hootchie cootchie
Oh and she knows how to nasty too


So if you′re lookin' for a good time
Look hard as you want but you ain′t gonna find
The kinda good time you will
Come every Friday, Saturday evening at the Top Hat Bar and Grille

Well at the Top Hat Bar and Grille
They got this bouncer name of Gil
Well he a honky tonky
Heavily funky, ex-marine

He wear them skintight body builder shirts
And Jack, he'll knock you out into the dirt
But if you got you no money or you try to get funny
Then mother you gonna see, yeah

That man gonna do the boogie woogie
He gonna do the boogaloo
He gonna do the hootchie cootchie
And he′ll be doin' all his dancin' on you

So if you′re lookin′ for a good time
Look hard as you want but you ain't gonna find
The kinda bad time you will
Come every Friday, Saturday evening at the Top Hat Bar and Grille

Lookin′ for a good time
Lookin' for a bad time


So if you′re lookin' for a good time
Look hard as you want but you ain′t gonna find
The kinda good time you will
Come every Friday, Saturday evening at the Top Hat Bar and Grille
