    Lyrics:
    Yeah
    Clean shirt, new shoes
    And I don't know where I am goin' to
    Silk suit, black tie (Black tie)
    I don't need a reason why
    They come runnin' just as fast as they can
    'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man
    Gold watch, diamond ring
    I ain't missin' not a single thing
    Cufflinks, stick pin
    When I step out, I'm gonna do you in
    They come runnin' just as fast as they can
    'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man
    Uh-huh
    Top coat, top hat
    And I don't worry 'cause my wallet's fat
    Black shades, white glove
    Lookin' sharp, lookin' for love
    They come runnin' just as fast as they can
    'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man
    Oh, you can't lose with the dress I use
    That's right, real fine

      One of my greatest memories. My Dad, brother, and I (all heavily bearded men), were all going to a blues concert in a Chrysler 300. It dawns on me half way there, three men like us, going to a blues show in a big body Chrysler show car. All we needed to do was start saying "how-how-how" and start wearing shades in the dark.

      +Tobias Chance Given that I've detected a bit of a running theme in ZZ Top's videos (unpopular/nerdy loser type gets bullied for being unpopular/nerdy loser type, but then is transformed by a change of clothes and the power of rock into the person who gets ALL the girls/guys worth having and gets to rub it in their bullies' noses, and also get a ride in Eliminator with three smokin' chicks), I wonder if maybe the boys themselves were a bit of the shy, unpopular, nerdy types in high school...

      +KoolCat ! The vast majority of people who are considered "cool" in adulthood were nerdy and unpopular in their teens especially when it comes to rock and roll musicians. Most forms of rock music are made for outsiders, the ones who never fit in with any other crowd and were usually picked on by the self elected popular crowd.
