Being in various pro bands in the '60's Vic got to work with talented people including "The Beatles" and Roger Miller.
He's met many stars including Cash, Or
Hell If He Knows
She's got a haze in her eyes, they see right past you
She draws deep on her cigarette. Her pale skin looks blue
Well into her forties, she's looking older
Despite the red lipstick, she hardly smoulders
The quiet man there wears her wedding ring
She treats him so coldly, like he was nothing*
She says darling give me a smoke and light it my dear
Bring me Jim on the rocks. Can't stand the smell of your beer
CHORUS**
Where did his old flame go?
She must be burning somewhere
Hell if he knows
And now it shows, the truth is, he no longer cares
She's spent all his money, he can't pay the bills
Now her head is on fire. She says "get me some pills
and put some wood on the fire, I'm chilled to the bone.
Oh, and don't take too long. You know I hate being alone."
He still likes her hot legs, he takes a last peek
He remembers back when her kiss packed some heat
He puts on his coat, and walks out the door
She assumes her darling has just gone to the store
Inst (three lines of verse)
BRIDGE
It gets chilly as the logs die down
He should be back by now from town
CHORUS**
Where did her old flame go?
He must be burning somewhere
Hell if she knows
And now it shows, the truth is, she no longer cares
Where did their old flame go?
Hell if they know
