The heat was stifling, the place was full

that August day at the BomBay Gin,

I was thinking of my 3rd Beer when,

like a Hollywood starlet she walked in

A wide brimmed hat, smartly dressed

like Rita Hayworth from long ago,

click of her heels on the floor

a woman every guy wanted to know

At the bar she slid into a seat

her perfume danced in my mind,

Bartender asked what she would like

" Double Whiskey and a man's tight behind"

She had the attention of every man

I got pushed aside when she needed a light,

like hungry dogs looking for fresh meat

every guy saw her as a quick delight

Tho there was a No Smoking sign

no one at the bar did care,

everyone wanted her, it was a scene,

such a woman, no one would share

I walked past the pack to a table

my dinner alone, waiting for me,

tho she seemd not to notice,

her eyes saw what she wanted to see

I was halfway through my meal

when she sat down too

" Mind if I sit with you,

you're not like others, are you? "

" Shall I tell you who I am?"

" Not really interested"-my reply was cold,

" No sense in showing all your colors

in rough wrappings there is usually Gold"

Laughing at my bluntness she said

" Ok-find out  later in your car!"

I said " better think again

you're on 1st base-you won't get far"

She said " I've made the pitch here

in this sweet little BomBay Gin"

I said " better think again

with your moves the Coach is calling you in"

She laughed, I smiled at her lips

so inviting " Will you dance with me?"

her hand on my leg, I said " Sure "

so close to her, a beauty to see

We danced forever that night

that lonely night at the BomBay Gin,

her passion for me like a prairie fire,

opened her heart and took me in

Her Kisses so deep ,took my breath away

Bewitching Beauty, a woman to win,

a Helen of Troy, a Bathsheba too,

that Rapturous Beauty at the BomBay Gin
