RIP: Leon Redbone
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Lived in Bucks County - New Hope. He used to play the Cabaret's around PHL in the '80s (Chestnut, 23 East, Ambler and West Chester). Saw him perform a few times during that period. RIP
remember seeing him play some summer music festival on Flagstaff Hill in Schenley park, must have been the early 80s. he was late and obviously impaired arriving at venue, which was just this flat area in middle of the field. This car drove up to stage are and he sort of fell out, stumbled to his seat and started playing. The whole gestalt of it was fairly amusing, his actual musical performance was not so great.

I want to be se-duced,
I want a wom-an to take me out to din-ner for two
I want to see her eyes get-tin' mood-y,
Flirt-in' with the thought of what flirt-in' can lead to
I want to act real cool, have her think a-bout get-tin' lit-tle me in bed
Have a chat a-bout Mag-na Chart-a, or Puer-to Val-ler-ta, or some-thin' Gan-dhi said
I might de-mur po-lite-ly, fal-ter slight-ly, if she starts to fon-dle my knee,
But I'm rel-a-tive-ly cer-tain I'd com-pro-mise if I know me
I want to be se-duced, I want a wom-an to talk to me sug-gest-ive-ly
I want to hear her say she'll be with me to-morr-ow morn-ing,
Drink-ing hot jas-mine tea
I want her to make me laugh, make a point of touch-ing me when she talks
Leav-ing all the jeal-ous guys in the joint to mum-ble in their beer and gawk
I know it on-ly hap-pens, when I'm nap-ping, nod-ding in my rev - er-ie
That I ev-er find a wom-an who would-n't mind se-du-cing me
I know it on-ly hap-pens, when I'm nap-ping, nod-ding in my rev - er-ie
That I ev-er find a wom-an who would-n't mind se-du-cing
Start-ing from the mom-ent that we'd been in-tro-duced
That I ev-er find a wom-an who would-n't mind se-du-cing me
Or 127. Nobody really knew. He was to dry for me but had a solid run in the 70s. RIP.
