Sharp Dressed Man

SHARP DRESSED MAN

Clean shirt, new shoes
and I don't know where I am goin' to.
Silk suit, black tie,
I don't need a reason why.
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
coz every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.

Gold watch, diamond ring,
I ain't missin' a single thing.
And cufflinks, stick pin,
when I step out I'm gonna do you in.
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
coz every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.

Top coat, top hat,
I don't worry coz my wallet's fat.
Black shades, white gloves,
lookin' sharp and lookin' for love
. They come runnin' just as fast as they can
coz every girl grazy 'bout a sharp dressed man.

- Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill & Frank Beard
(The title to this ode to natty threadbarers was inspired by a bit
player cast credit in a long-forgotten movie. Ironic, isn't it, that
Dusty, a man who has always considered himself "immune to fashion"
(Billy and Frank take no issue) should have helped start the stick pin
and silk suit craze?)
