Al's Dine and Dance

Al’s Dine and Dance
(That fanciful ,“happy “ D progression - my version of “Cheers” theme with some license as I had never been in there, but by it thousands of times ,sounded great with more voices, guitars,double flutes, piano … a really funny experience when we actually "liberated" Al’s on a Sunday night on our way home after Sea Bright’s first major Passim’s appearance. For a time after it closed we had the old beat up neon sign = the backdrop for our launching party at the yacht club June ‘81 and our party performance at Al’s August ‘81 after it had been sold and was on the way to becoming Grumpy Whites)

There’s a bar up the street where the local folks meet,
Halfway between work and home,
Or later at night for a drink or a fight,
When you don’t feel like feeling alone.
Where everyone goes when there’s no place to go,
You don’t have to call in advance. (There’s no phone.)
Nobody dances and nobody dines at Al’s Dine and Dance!

Break

Where everyone goes when there’s no place to go…

Maybe sometime if I have half a mind,
Or if fancy takes me perchance,
We’ll stage us a show,
call everyone we know.
We’ll liberate Als’s Dine and Dance
