My favorite Long John Baldry tune.
RIP John

A Thrill's a Thrill

Take a hard look around you, babe,
There ain't nobody got it made
So you can live in your head
Or you can live in your heart
But if you don't live at all
Then why the hell did you start ?
Thrill's a thrill
I said a thrill's a thrill
Even in paradise

A thrill's a thrill
A thrill's a thrill
Even in paradise
I said a thrill's a thrill.
Take a hard look around you, baby,
Ain't nobody got it made.
You can live in your head,
You can live in your heart
And if you don't live at all
Then why the hell did you start ?
A thrill's a thrill
A thrill's a thrill
Even in paradise
I said a thrill's a thrill.
I said a thrill's a thrill.
I said a thrill's a thrill.
A thrill's ...
