Palmer, Robert - Spanish Moon Lyrics






One two
Well the night that I got into town
Was the night that the rain froze on the ground
Comin' down the street I heard such a sorrowful tune
Comin' from the place they called the spanish moon

Well I stepped inside, and I stood by the door
While dark-eyed girls sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers, filled up the room
This was the place they called the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ?? train
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon

Well I sold my watch and I pawned my ring
Just to hear that girl sing
'bout the news my whole ?? rose soon
'bout the news down at the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ?? train
If that don't kill me soon the women will down at the spanish moon
Oh oh give it

What if I said, can you get to the end it's a ?? situation
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon
Oh oh, give it to me please, whoa

Well I stepped inside, and I stood by the door
A dark-eyed girl sang and played the guitar
Hookers and hustlers, filled up the room
This was the place they called the spanish moon

Whiskey and bad cocaine
Got me on ?? train
If that don't kill me soon
The women will down at the spanish moon

Palmer, Robert Spanish Moon Comments
  1. S.... T....

    His voice was just great. The entire tune is funky as fuck.

  2. f.... m....

    everyone you are now obligated to do whatever it is You like

  3. S.... ....

    I hate it when they don't put in the right information. This song was composed by Lowell George (RIP) and recorded with his group Little Feat in the 70's.

    S.... ....

    YT only puts the info necessary to identify the recording in question, the rights info and the purchase link. The actual composers and whether there's another version are (unfortunately) not part of this.

    S.... ....

    Not true

    S.... ....

    @spinalcrackerbox I don't know if it's exactly like that. Some time ago I uploaded a video and set a James Gang song called '' Rather be alone with you '' in the background. I didn't put in the video or description anything about the song ... nor the name of the song. Do not ask me how, but it appeared in the video description all the information ... band name, song name, album name, record label...

  4. M.... R....

    The alliteration with hookers and hustlers is great

  5. F.... F....

    jesus christ this version 😫😭, lowell george and palmer were a deadly combination rip to both 💆🏽

  6. j.... c....

    If i could put a rock n roll supergroup together, Robert Palmer would be the lead singer...

  7. B.... C....

    Those caramel-complexioned "visions!"

  8. K.... J....

    2019! This things I would do to this man!!!!! Swooning! 👍🏻❤️💁🏻‍♀️

    K.... J....

    I know Kate. Unfortunately, :he's been dead 16 years now.😢💔

    K.... J....

    Faint for Lowell George too ... from heaven he will smile. He composed this song and recorded it with his group Little Feat.

  9. K.... J....

    ❤️🙌🏻❤️

  10. K.... J....

    ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💜💜💜

  11. S.... F....

    Genius!

    S.... F....

    Lowell George was the genius. He composed and recorded this song with his group Little Feat. It seems to me that Robert Palmer recorded some other songs of his.

  12. L.... S....

    man, I miss him. Great music, hands down gorgeous Mr. Palmer.

    L.... S....

    This song was composed and recorded by guitarist Lowell George (RIP) and his group Little Feat. It seems to me that Robert Palmer has re-recorded some of their other songs.

  13. D.... P....

    My favorite verison of this song,

  14. A.... C....

    Good... but not as good as Lowell George and Little Feat!

    A.... C....

    I concur...Although, I would love to hear Robert Palmer sing this with Little Feat.

    A.... C....

    @Ronnie Harris Lowell did produce this though, with members of Feat and The Meters! Classic either version

  15. i.... ....

    Engineer Phill Brown was absolutely a BOSS! Listen how amazing this recording was made on old 1976 equipment. We have it too easy these days...

    i.... ....

    There is a lot to be said for the old non-digital equipment.

  16. J.... b....

    LOVE IT!!!!

  17. H.... P....

    Luna Española ( Spanish Moon) Amazing Song

  18. w.... ....

    not that funky

    w.... ....

    are you deaf?

    w.... ....

    why bother

  19. M.... P....

    Soo dope. Anyone know if this is where Lowell George got the whiskey/bad cocaine line heard on the "Waiting for Columbus" version? Seeing as how Little Feat's original studio version has a different lyric.

    M.... P....

    +Matt Phebus as far as i know, lowell george wrote the original. they would play it at live shows as early as 1972-73. the original lyrics are found on 'waiting for columbus' and here (with slight variations), but they were adjusted for the album release. i'm not sure why, perhaps for radio play? incidentally, that's little feat playing all the instruments here...

    M.... P....

    i think this was the "live" Lowell line, sanitized for the LP

    M.... P....

    Feat would often play their songs differently day to day, that was a lot of Zappa's influence on Lowell George production abilities,I saw em 5 days in a row at Warner Theatre in DC , every show very different

    M.... P....

    lowell george wrote "spanish moon"...after his death little feat always started their live shows with this song as a tribute to him..they say lowell wrote this as his own epitaph..!!..i was blessed to see them them twice in ireland.in the 80's and 90's....went back to the ormond hotel with them once,..drove home 25 miles,got all my little feat lp's..brought them back and all the band signed them all for me..gave them all away ...sorry i didn't keep "down on the farm"... my fav...

  20. 9.... ....

    One of the best Robert Palmer songs in my opinion.

    9.... ....

    He does a great version of it. Love his voice on it

    9.... ....

    He's channeling Lowell George & Little Feat, RIP Robert and Lowell

    9.... ....

    Thanks Lowell

    9.... ....

    'cept it is a Lowell George cover.

    9.... ....

    Hookers and hustlers filled up the room this was the place they called the Spanish Moon.

  21. N.... S....

    Cool as fuck.

    That is all.
