When your mother
walked into that dance
hall in Montrichard
what did she see
Through the haze
of champagne did
she notice my brain
or my college degree
Kid what she saw
was a uniform
Through the dirt
and debris
Yes those ladies
gave thanks
To us visiting Yanks
Cause pinstripes are
all they see
When a pilot walks
onto a plane all the
passengers smile
and relax
Do they know he's still
tight from that party last
night or the back to
back jacks
Now what they see is
a uniform
How it fits it fits to a tee
Like that visiting team
That the Yankees
will cream
Pinstripes are all that
they see
If you wanna be a
someone
You can't look
like a bum
A book's judged by
it's cover
That's the first rule
of thumb
I wanna see ya take off
Straight to the top floor
Start dressing to
impress 'em
Son you'll stroll in the
front door
A kid in a man's candy
store yea
Every lawyer's bespoke
to the nines to a jury
he's smart and refined
And they see one look
the defendant's a crook
or that justice is blind
What they see is
the uniform
As he bargains a plea
They all cease and desist
So hard to resist
Pinstripes are all that
they see
yea we're gonna hit the
high life
We've only just begun
We're gonna be together
Frank Sr and son
Dine at the Latin Quarter
A night cap too short
Yea we're gonna be
at ringside
Life will be better
than before
For two kids in a man's
candy store
