ZZ-Top
Intro: E A X 2
[E]Deep in the South of [A]Texas [E]Not so long a[A]go,
[E]There on a crowded [A]island[E] In the Gulf of Mex[A]ico
[E]It didn't take too much [A]money, [E]Man, but it sure was nic[A]e.
[E]You could dance all night [A]if you felt all right,
Drinking [E]whiskey and throwing [A]dice.
Chorus
[D]And everybody k[A]nows
[D]It was hard to [A]leave.
[D]And everybody k[A]nows
G F# riff to A
It was down at the Balinese.
Yeah, I remember Ruby, She always dressed in red
Wearing skintight pants, Lord, and how she could dance
With a rag wrapped around her head.
Chorus
And everybody knows
It was hard to leave.
And everybody knows
It was down at the Balinese,It was down at the Balinese,
It was down at the Balinese. Fade out
Nice easy tune very straight forward.
Enjoy,
