Sweet Gingerbread Man
The C.R.S. Players Lyrics

I see you in a local bar
I notice you in a nearby bar

We laugh and talk a while
We share laughter and engage in conversation for some time

And listen to our friend play his guitar
We enjoy the music being played by our mutual friend on the guitar

Drinks and beers and cigarettes
We indulge in alcoholic beverages and cigarette smoking

I bum another smoke off you
I ask you for another cigarette

While Ozzy is still singing strong
Despite Ozzy still singing energetically in the background

Still talking with you
We continue conversing with each other

Ozzy starts sayin' goodnight
Ozzy begins to bid farewell

He flips a switch and turns the radio on
He switches on the radio

But I wish I could hear you
However, I yearn to listen to you

Plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Sweet Blues now
Perform your soulful blues music at this moment

Noisy pop music blares
Loud and chaotic pop music blares around us

Stagnant and loud
The music remains monotonous and loud

I sure wish I could hear some of your music now
I truly wish to listen to your music in the present moment

Hey Ozzy brings his new guitar
Hey, Ozzy brings his recently acquired guitar

He hands it over for you to try and
He passes it to you for you to give it a try and

You take it with certainty
You accept it confidently

Still swayin' to the rhythm
Continuously moving in sync with the beat

Dim lights in smokey mist
Dimly lit surroundings immersed in a haze of smoke

Your face is glowing
Your countenance radiates with joy

And I listen to your songs
And I attentively listen to the songs you perform

Your voice soft and low
Your voice is gentle and subdued

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinging Sweet blues now
Singing the soulful blues passionately at this moment

Then we start talking more
Subsequently, we engage in further conversation

I'm hearin' about your band and you
I'm learning about your musical group and your personal experiences

But I seem to focus in and
However, I seem to concentrate and

I Listen to your smile
I attentively perceive the happiness conveyed through your smile

Hey I'm Listening
Hey, I'm paying close attention

It's very late and time to leave
It is considerably late, indicating the need to depart

Now everyone is clearin' out
Now all the people are dispersing, leaving the area

So we're all on the sidewalk now
Consequently, we find ourselves on the sidewalk

I feel so deep inside
I experience a profound, internal sensation

I want to stay with you a while and
I desire to spend more time in your company and

Improvise our melodies
Improvising and creating our own musical tunes

So we start walking over to my street
Thus, we begin walking towards my residential area

To party more and play some more mean guitar
To continue celebrating and playing passionate guitar melodies

Baby some fires never die
My dear, certain passions endure indefinitely

We still plaaaaaaaaaaay
We persist in playing

Sweet blues now
The soulful blues music remains our focus at present
