[Verse 1]
Misty was an exotic dancer
She had rockets on the soles of her shoes
That's the only thing she was wearin'
When the bouncer came to give her the news
He said there was a man from the city
With a smile and a boatload of cash
Said he was lookin' for a good time
So she just sprayed on some perfume and laughed
[Chorus]
Oh, 'cause it's one for the money
Sometimes two or three for the show
All for a taste of the honey
I'm startin' to break
Had about all I can take
[Verse 2]
Jimmy was an insurance salesman
Thought maybe it was all a mistake
Landed in Toledo, Ohio
'Cause he knew he'd never make it to Spain
Stayed up all night reading Hemmingway
With cheap dreams and expensive gin
And the sun would come up and he'd fill up his cup
And get ready just to do it again
