Back To Black: A Tribute To Amy Winehouse

Topic starter
I was in Austin from 6/11/24 through today, went for my brother's show Wednesday with Alanis Morissette. How could I resist going to The Continental Club my last night in Austin? Just the place where Jimmie and Stevie Ray Vaughan cut their teeth, that's all. Last night was a most wonderful Tribute To Amy Winehouse, an 8 piece with a 3 piece horn section, Hammond organ, and an incredible vocalist doin' her Amy thang, and doin' it SO well. I have TONS more in the can, will post more later.

Amy was a genius of a songwriter and this is one of my favorite tunes. This one's about girls in their 20's who rely solely on their looks to get them by. I am copying the lyrics below.

When you walk in the bar and you're dressed like a star
Rockin' your F me pumps
And the men notice you with your Gucci bag crew
Can't tell who he's lookin' to
Cause you all look the same everyone knows your name
And that's your whole claim to fame
Never miss a night cause your dream in life
Is to be a footballer's wife
You don't like players that's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
You don't like ballers they don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You're more than a fan lookin' for a man
But you end up with one-night stands
He could be your whole life if you got past one night
But that part never goes right
In the morning you're vexed he's onto the next
And you didn't even get no text
Don't be too upset if they call you a sket
'Cause like the news everyday you get pressed
You don't like players that's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
Or them big ballers don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You can't sit down right 'cause your jeans are too tight
And you're lucky it's ladies' night
With your big empty purse every week it gets worse
At least your breasts cost more than hers
So you did Miami 'cause you got there for free
But somehow you missed the plane
You did too much E, met somebody
And spent the night getting caned
Without girls like you there'd be no fun
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
Without girls like you there's no nightlife
All those men just go home to their wives
Don't be mad at me 'cause you're pushing thirty
And your old tricks no longer work
You should have known from the jump
that you'd always get dumped
So dust off your f*ck me pumps
