Frank and Lola
By: Jimmy Buffett, Steve Goodman
1982
"Lucy and Ricky, Fred and Ethel, Laurel and Hardy, Spanky
and Buckwheat, Rocky and Bullwinkle, and Frank and Lola...
they're all good for a laugh."
Lola loves Frank, Frankie loves Lola
On their second honeymoon in Pensacola
Tryin' to find a little privacy
Oh me there been too much screamin', fussin' and fightin'
The doggies were yellin', the children were bitin'
Frank and Lola tryin' to get together again
So he took her to this movie called "Body Heat"
She said the Junior Mints were mushy and the sex was neat
Oh my, Frankie weren't we better than that, before our spat
Frank told Lola, honey can't you see
That I'll jump start you if you'll kick start me
Frank and Lola tryin' to get together again
So they strolled along the highway, they walked along the beach
They stopped at several raw bars where they slurped a dozen each
Bought a bunch of popcorn from the fat man on the dock
Baby turn back the pages, turn 'round the clock
Lola told Frankie time we put it to the test
After Frankie told Lola she was still the best
They fell asleep in the sand underneath the Florida moon, in June
Lola counted rainbows, Frankie counted sheep
'Til they almost got run over by the lifeguard's Jeep
Frank and Lola tryin' to get together again
Go, Frank, go
Lo la, lo
Go, Frank, go, wow
(instrumental)
So they strolled along the highway, they walked along the beach
Stopped at several raw bars where they slurped a dozen each
Bought a bunch of popcorn from the fat man on the dock
Baby turn back the pages, turn 'round the clock
Lola loves Frank, Frankie loves Lola
On their second honeymoon in Pensacola
Tryin' to find a little priva-
Tryin' to find a little priva-
Tryin' to find a little privacy
Go, Frank, go
Lo la, lo
Go, Mango
