      Hi Johnny
      Thanks for producing this most excellent ZZ Top tune.
      It is a firm favourite of mine I had tried to work out a version of my own but without success.
      When I received your email I just had to have a copy, and now I have.
      Great stuff, and I love the energy of your performance.
      Cheers Jeff

          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
          Top coat, top hat
          And I don’t worry ’cause my wallet’s fat
          Black shades, white gloves
          Lookin’ sharp, lookin’ for love
          They come runnin’ just as fast as they can
          ‘Cause every girl crazy ’bout a sharp-dressed man

              “Sharp Dressed Man’ is a winner low down Blues. Sounds like a Country Blues found on an old 38 rpm record. Rock and roll blues. Thanks for posting the lyrics Mark and thanks for the music Johnny
