When Salome Plays The Drum
2
By: Jimmy Buffett
3
1981
4
For Salome, Freddo and Clauvis
5
When Salome plays the drum
6
Crowd goes deaf and dumb
7
Swept up by dark sensations
8
Partially the heat
9
More so it's the beat
10
She moves in syncopation
11
Gazelle on the run
12
Skirts slit past her thigh
13
Boys let out a sigh
14
The beat begins to quicken
15
Crowd ascends the stairs
16
Climbin' on the chairs
17
The plot begins to thicken
18
Phasers on stun
19
Chorus:
20
Take them to the carnival (take them to the carnival)
21
Let them hear the conga
22
Tonight the tempo feels so right
23
Tomorrow may be wrong-a
24
(instrumental)
25
Gendarme close her down
26
Make her leave the town
27
She caught the flight to Rio
28
Nothin' to say
29
Wavin' from the plane
30
Pourin' pink champagne
31
She toasts her loyal trio
32
It was a lucrative stay
33
Ooh take them to the carnival (take them to the carnival)
34
Let them hear the conga
35
Tonight the tempo feels so right
36
Tomorrow may be wrong-a
37
Oh won't you take them to the carnival (take them to the carnival)
38
Let them play for hours
39
Tonight the weather feels so right
40
Tomorrow (tomorrow) feels like showers
41
