Late nights, down the back streets, across the cobblestones we'd roam and laughing through the bar haze we would wait for Dave to show. Dave now, like his namesake, used to blow in on the breeze Put a smile on every face, slapping backs and squeezing knees Oh, we'd live and we'd laugh, to the music we'd sway Oh, we'd live, love, laugh and cry thanks to Dave Jokes fell from his lips like dust falls from a golden gown Wore the mantle of his royalty, the little king of this old town Gathered pilgrims to his progress like believers to a shrine And he made it through the big time, was a star on 'What's My Line' Oh, we'd live and we'd laugh, to the music we'd sway Oh, we'd live, love, laugh and cry thanks to Dave Well there's sunlight on the sidewalk, hear the morning talk and the mood has changed You can relive the past nights, lamplight to limelight, always the same We were fools every one of us, rolling in the night Dancing to that famous refrain, thanks to dave Often in the grip of some fancy party fare We would tiptoe to the frontier with Dave as our guide there And it's funny how the years pass, been and gone and you're not aware How and when we drifted from the time that we had there Oh, we'd live and we'd laugh, to the music we'd sway Oh, we'd live, love, laugh and cry thanks to Dave Thanks to Dave, Thanks to Dave From Letras Mania
