Chantilly Lace

The best thing about my beautiful lover
was how she came alive in my life,
like putting a dollar into a karaoke machine
and singing "Chantilly Lace" and realizing
that she was the woman in that song.
"There ain't nothing in the world
like a big eyed girl, make me act
so funny, make me spend my money,
make me feel real loose like a
long necked goose, like a,
Wa baby thats what I like."
Oh yeah, "She had a wiggle
in her walk and a giggle
in her talk and she makes
the world go round.  
Wa baby, thats
what I like."

The words in parenthesis
are from the song sung
by the Big Bopper
called "Chantilly Lace."

Yep, the the day the music died when the plane crash killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper.

Hey James you got the Big Bopper threaded into this.
I really enjoyed it.
