Lyrics
MANHATTAN SATIN
W:Larry M Clark BMI P:Ellemsee Music, BMI. larrymyrtus@yahoo.com
VERSE
Let me tell you 'bout my Lady, She's from New York City
From a high-class family and she's mighty pretty
Well, I gave her my heart and she gave me hers too
Now, we share our time between Route 1 and Park Avenue
CHORUS
She's Manhattan Satin, She's Park Place lace
But she can get downtown, lowdown,
when she's in the right place
I'm Dixie denim, I'm Georgia clay
But I can be rich guy, black tie,
when she wants me that way
SOLO
VERSE
Now, my Lady likes Mozart, but Willie is my man
So, now and then we get down to a Country band
Other times, we spiff up, and sit and watch "Swan Lake"
Because we love each other so much, we give and we take
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
