Spring Released

Grant Lee Phillips

Shangri-La out on the West side

In the blinding night oh why

Where they swing their arms out by the roadside

Like a baby doll oh why



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and

My little girlfriend's hanging light

I feel the blood rush pumpin' haulin'



Late July fire in the dance hall

Honey where am I stuck to the wall

Out on the rim of space up by the bandstand

Don't I know my place always



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and (spring released ah)

My little girlfriend's hanging light (she's hanging light)

I feel the blood rush pumpin' haulin' (I feel the blood rush)

My little girlfriend she's a hanging tight



[Scraps of phrases - Spoken]



Pale eyes don't show your weakness

On the town tonight oh why

Pale heart don't cut your wrist up

'Cause ya can't decide oh why would ya



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and (spring released ah)

My little girlfriend she's hanging light (she's hanging light)

I feel the blood rush pumpin' haulin' (I feel the blood rush)

My little girlfriend she's a hanging light

She's a hanging light



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and (spring released ah)

My little girlfriend she's hanging light (she's hanging light)

I feel the blood rush pumpin' haulin' (I feel the blood rush)

My little girlfriend she's a hanging light (she's hanging light)



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and (spring released ah)

My little girlfriend's hanging light (she's hanging light)

I feel the blood rush pumpin' haulin' (I feel the blood rush)

My little girlfriend she's a hanging light



Damn this floor is thumpin' spring released and

My little girlfriend's hanging light
