Wisconsin Night Song

from The Kilogram of Gold by Paul Kotheimer

lyrics

I called for my baby at her apartment long about a Saturday night. The dress she was wearing, man, she sure looked out of sight. I said to her, "Darling, girl, you sure do look all right," and we went out. We went to a dance, and a combo was playing two-step music all night long. I said to myself, "Man, tonight this band can do no wrong." Just then they broke into my girlfriend's favorite song, and it went like this. - Me and my girlfriend decided to duck round the corner for a late night snack. We told all our friends in a minute we would be right back. Instead we went out walking, and the sky was velvet black, and we made out.
