There's a bar in Roanoke
They call themselves the pony goat
It opened in 1964
Not a place you can ignore
Seemed just like another night
I saw her face in the evening light
Completely missed when she looked me down
This ones on me I'll see you around
She pulled me in close
And to my surprise
She whispered in my ears
No not this time
Now keep your eyes closed
And face your back to me
I've never been more nervous
For what I was about to see

I still remember the look in her eyes
She said the words that took my surprise
Excuse me sir can I be brief
I sat there stunned disbelief
Later when everyone was gone
We danced all night to Elton john
She said goodnight and locked the door
You must be the one I'm looking for

Finally good news for me
The night didn't stop right on a dime
She drove to her apartment
Waiting for us stairs to climb
She let me in
Then she closed the latch shut
She said I hope you don't mind
Just a little shortcut

I still remember the look in her eyes
She said the words that took my surprise
Excuse me sir can I be brief
I sat there stunned disbelief
Later when everyone was gone
We danced all night to Elton john
She said goodnight and locked the door
You must be the one I'm looking for

I still remember the look in her eyes
She said the words that took my surprise
Excuse me sir can I be brief
I sat there stunned disbelief
Later when everyone was gone
We danced all night to Elton john
She said goodnight and locked the door
You must be the one I'm looking for
