REO Speedwagon Lyrics

"157 Riverside Avenue" lyrics


We flew into town on Sunday, had to find a place by Monday
Tried Bridgeport and Westport, 'til we found a place that we thought would do
157 Riverside Avenue.

Saugatuck River's flowin', Mother nature's colors were showin'
So cold, and rainy, we couldn't help feelin' blue
Not enough time, too many things to do.

(solo)

We met a young girl on Main Street, wanted just to pass her by
She was homely, but we were lonely, she said "Can I make love to you?"
We shouted 157 Riverside Avenue

live verse
We met a young girl on Main street, wanted to pass her by
She was lovely, we were horney, She said, "Can I make love to you?"
I said 157 Riverside Avenue. Here's what she said:

live verse
Well ya see she talk like a guitar, that woman did, I never understood a word
she said, maybe thats why we got along so well. I don't know baby, come on baby.

It's over, Miss Lena, we're leaving. Such a pleasant stay, I must say.
So nice, so easy, we hate to say goodbye to you
At 157 Riverside Avenue.
