Thru The Curtain

I left my baby...overseas
But I'm going to get her back
Someday
I got my papers
I'll do some walking
It doesn't matter
How far I've got to go
I'll take those chances
I'll climb those fences
To get my baby from overseas

Cause she, she's my girl
Yea she, she's my world
She needs me

I've been out working
Every day now
To get my girlfriend
On a plane out
Of Romania, thru the curtain
Into the arms of her
Guy who's hurtin'

Cause she, she's my girl
Yea she, she's my world
She needs me

I've been working
Everyday now
To get my girlfriend
On a plane out
Of Romania, thru the curtain
Into the arms of her
Guy who's hurtin'

Cause she, she's my girl
Yea she, she's my world
She needs me

I got some friends who'll
Forge her passport
Make her look like a
UN Diplomat
Get her to peace talks
In Geneva
That's where they'll get her
And that's where I'll meet her

Cause she, she's my girl
Yea, she, she's my world
She needs me

Work, work, work, work,
To get my baby
Work
Thru the curtain
Work
To get my baby
Work
To get my baby
Work
Thru the curtain
Ride down that Orient Express
