Ladies Nite In Buffalo

[Loons The Great]

Talk about the high cost of lovin'
I think I hear freedom drummin' it seems
Give me your heart
And I'll give you the stars
"Yeah right," she says
"Maybe in your dreams"

Heat wave blast,
Kids are screamin'
Pavement's hot
The sidewalk's steamin'
Only me, happens every time
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
Hello, good-bye

Jazz it up or play it slow
It's still the only song I know
It's 2 a.m. and traffic's slow
Another ladies' night in Buffalo

I was list'nin' to the DJ sayin'
"Put that storm behind"
Well, the winds can blow
Bad or better
I don't mind some
Stormy weather tonight, no

I can feel it
The heat wave blast,
Kids are screamin'
Pavement's hot
The sidewalk's steamin'
Only me, happens every time
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
Hello, good-bye

Put the top down
Hit the road
Sing the only song we know
It's 2 a.m. the traffic's slow
It looks like ladies' night in Buffalo

Yeah, I got kind of a sense of deja vu
I could swear I've seen you somewhere before
You don't think you ever seen me somewhere before
Do you, huh?
Must have been two other people

I know days are safe
I didn't want to have a fight
It's too far to drive back, baby
I wanna drive her home tonight

You can jazz it up or play it slow
It's still the only song I know
It's 2 a.m. and traffic's slow
Another ladies' night in Buffalo

Well it ain't much all right I know
But it's the only song I know
2 a.m. and traffic's slow
Another ladies' night in Buffalo
This must be ladies' night in Buffalo

I've read that John Lowery couldn't wait to play this tune live with the DLR Band...too bad he ran off to Marilyn Manson...Conmee has preached about this tune bein' one of Roth's mos' bes' blues for many summahs nah yez...I belieb this cut is tremendous...awesome lyrics...cool vibe...Great God almighty...the groove...groovin' on down de line nah yez...Ize digs the Vai solo fo' sho'...nah nah yez...well well well...oooh well well...alright nah...can ya dig it??...

[Nickdfresh]

I recall a brief interview with Steve Vai in which he said that he sort of pieced together the song little by little, and that it took a while to write...

[binnie]

Great groove on this song, and Roth's delivery from soft to louder, is exceptional.


Vai's solo is also strong

Now you has jazz...this cut has been hittin' me likes a ton a lead lately...HELL YEAH!!

[Loons The Great]

Here tis, y'all...Hell Yes!!

Well, here I'm rollin' down another sunny highway,
been in the sun too long.
I'm goin' coconuts but least I'm goin' my way,
I'll prob'bly be here when that sun goes down.

I wanna live it up, wanna quit my job,
tell the boss to go to hell.
I ain't complainin', you do the best with what you got.
I know you're laughin' 'cause it's easy to tell

I'm goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Remember dancing on the pier last night?
Got drunk and fell into the water.
The big policeman wasn't laughing, didn't blink an eye,
he said, "You're messin' with the mayor's daughter."

Don't tell me, "Give it up", too busy getting down,
I learned my lessons well.
You get it goin' and you don't never stop.
I know you're laughin' 'cause it's easy to tell

I'm goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Goin' crazy,
goin' crazy,
oo, from the heat.

Ize been crankin' this tune up to 11 lately...what a CUT!!! Screamin' Stevie Vai had the sound down fo' this bad to the bone/you been gone too long/another woman is on the throne rocker!!!!!! HELL YEAH!!

Great vocal from King Papa Diamond Dave!! The bass in yo face from Bad Billy Sheehan...he lead you to ruin cuz he knows what he's doin'...and some heavy artillery from one of 'em bad Bissonette brothers!!

It's Eat 'Em and Smile One MO' TIME AGAIN YA'LL!!!!!!

WELL WELL WELL

[chi-town324]

[bastardog]

One of my fav Dave solo songs.
Every time I hear it it takes me days to take out of my mind

[Loons The Great]

...Put the top down
Hit the road
Sing the only song we know
It's 2 a.m. the traffic's slow
It looks like ladies' night in Buffalo...

That's the sound of summertime nah nah yezz yezz...

Some of the best lyrics ever, IMO :cool:

and Daves voice sounds cool as mint in this numba

ah yessss.....

If I had to pick one song to convert a non-Dave fan, Ladies Night in Buffalo would be it.

A hard rock fan would probably appreciate other tunes, but a hard rock fan would probably already appreciate Dave.

I'm talking about someone who doesn't dig this kind of music, and has pre-conceptions about it.

I think this song is the one that would win 'em over - it's irresistable.

[Loons The Great]

Right on, Binnie!!
You
Ain't
Lyin'!!
!!!!!!!!
