lyrics

On a cold and wintery night,
Left New York City, international flight
Across the Pacific it was quite a ride
When I woke up it was summer on the down under side
Went out walking on the Adelaide streets
Looking for a cold one and something to eat
I heard a funny sound from a bar across the line
I looked up to read the sign

Grace Emily, a loud electric guitar
Grace Emily, where all the pretty girls are
Grace Emily, snags grilling in the back
If you want to have good time follow me
Down to the Grace Emily
The Grace Emily
The Grace Emily

As it happened, it was Monday night
The crowd was loose and the band was tight
A regular hang for the usual crew
Of college kids and hippies and a biker or two
They asked me to sit in and I said, "What the heck"
I didn't know just what to expect
They said, "This one is easy, it's in the key of A"
Counted to four and we were on our way

Grace Emily, a loud electric guitar
Grace Emily, where all the pretty girls are
Grace Emily, snags grilling in the back
If you want to have good time follow me
Down to the Grace Emily
The Grace Emily
The Grace Emily

Some day I'll make it back
I'll go ten thousand miles at the drop of a hat
To hear that rock and roll and feel that beat
Beat it on down to Weymouth Street

Grace Emily, a loud electric guitar
Grace Emily, where all the pretty girls are
Grace Emily, snags grilling in the back
If you want to have good time follow me
Down to the Grace Emily
A loud electric guitar
Grace Emily, where all the pretty girls are
Grace Emily, snags grilling in the back
If you want to have good time follow me
Down to the Grace Emily
The Grace Emily
The Grace Emily
