Billy Joel – Zanzibar Lyrics  Share

From Billy Joel's album: 52nd Street

Ali dances and the audience applauds
Though he^,s bathed in sweat he hasn^,t lost his style
Ali don^,t you go downtown
You gave away another round for free

Me, I^,m just another face at Zanzibar
But the waitress always serves a secret smile
She^,s waiting out in Shantytown
She^,s gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me

I^,ve got the old man^,s car
I^,ve got a jazz guitar
I^,ve got a tab at Zanzibar
Tonight that^,s where I^,ll be

Rose, he knows he^,s such a credit to the game
But the Yankees grab the headline every time
Melodrama^,s so much fun
In black and white for everyone to see
Me, I^,m trying just to get to second base
[ Zanzibar lyrics from

And I^,d steal it if she only gave the sign
She^,s gonna give the go ahead
The inning isn^,t over yet for me

I^,ve got the old man^,s car
I^,ve got a jazz guitar
I^,ve got a tab at Zanzibar
Tonight that^,s where I^,ll be

Tell the waitress I^,ll come back to Zanzibar
I^,ll be hiding in the darkness with my beer
She^,s waiting out in Shantytown
She^,s gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me

I^,ve got the old man^,s car
I^,ve got a jazz guitar
I^,ve got a tab at Zanzibar
Tonight that^,s where I^,ll be
