DRY RUN
(Jimmy Bradford)
PARKER CUNNINGHAM (REBEL SO:700/1, 1960)

Late last night I thought I had a date
When I got to her house I was a few minutes late
I thought we'd go out and have a little fun
But it all turned out to be a dry run
Dry run, dry run, had a date with a blonde
But it turned out to be a dry run

Well, I thought we'd go to a picture show
Sit in the corner where the lights are low
Hug and kiss and have a little fun
But it all turned out to be a dry run
Dry run, dry run, had a date with a blonde
But it turned out to be a dry run

Well, I went a bop to see what I could find
I saw her there but she paid me no mind
She was dancin' with a hard ankle, havin' fun
Yes, it all turned out to be a dry run
Dry run, dry run, had a date with a blonde
But it turned out to be a dry run
Had a date with a blonde
But it turned out to be a dry run
