Doobie Brothers - 45th Floor

45th Floor

Politician drivin down the road
Flashin that smile that got himthe vote.
Heres another country girl,
Hes teachin her about the world in his room
On the 45th floor - get em all while theyre young.
Campaign money comes rollin in
Aint nobody askin where its been,
Talk about a smokin gun.
Whatd we pay to get his son out of jail?
Dont inhale
On the 45th floor.
We all know whats been happenin,
Aint no slappin himdown.
Were supposedly invited to the party,
But the elevators never gonna stop
On the 45th floor.
Doesnt matter if its day or night
Cause were all gonna pay the price.
And the party rolls on.
Used to be a rumour goin round,
The people tried to run my man outta town.
We thought wed see himride the rails.
No ones ever gonna nail himdown
All because of the 45th floor.
We all know whats been happenin,
Aint no slappin himdown.
Were supposedly invited to the party,
But the elevators never gonna stop
On the 45th floor.
oesnt matter if its day or night
Cause were all gonna pay the price.
And the party rolls on.
None of these fools ever thinks about the pain they cause.
Its all about an image to uphold.
How could anybody be so bold?
Takin all the candy from the hands of a child.
We all know whats been happenin,
Aint no slappin himdown.
Were supposedly invited to the party,
But the elevators never gonna stop
On the 45th floor.
Doesnt matter if its day or night
Cause were all gonna pay the price.
And the party rolls on.
Doesnt matter if its day or night
Cause were all gonna pay the price.
And the party rolls on.
