Steely Dan - Throw Back The Little Ones Lyrics
Lost in the Barrio I walk like an Injun
So Carlo won't suspect something's wrong here
I dance in place
And paint my face
And act like I belong here
[Chorus:]
Throw back the little ones
And pan-fry the big ones
Use tact, poise and reason
And gently squeeze them
Hot licks and rhetoric
Don't count much for nothing
Be glad if you can use what you borrow
So I pawn my crown
And buy it back tomorrow
[Chorus]
Done like a matador I pray for the weekend
And hope the little girls still throw roses
Else I'll change my bait
And move upstate
Before the season closes
[Chorus]

This is how Tinder feels now.
Is this one of your favorite Steely Dan songs?
I finally got to see Steely Dan live on Aug. 30. It was well worth it; incredible show. What a talented, timeless band! I always loved their witty and incisive lyrics, but the musicianship and production are also top-notch. Bodhisattva!
Too bad you couldn't see them with Water Becker. But good for you
I got to see them in Boston and in Connecticut a few weeks ago. Those were two great shows. Is this one of your favorite Steely Dan songs?
love this have never heard it before but so good the musicians are first class and the singing is a litle bit strange but so good
I mean, a freakin bit of accordion solo to boot
LOST IN THE BARRIO... LOL ORALE VIVA STEELY DAN
Killer guitar solo by Elliott Randall! Always one of my favorites from this album.
Those drums are so hard, and super tight. Unbelievable.
Couldn't be more appropriate for these times
Wow!!! <3 Just squeeze me gently! :O :D
Inappropriate for this period and time lmao
Does not compute! This is timeless! :D

Freakin’ masterpiece by the Dan. Among others.
Love the Dan! And all there skeeviness and dark situations and characters
Use tact, poise, and reason. . . then gently squeeze them. 😁
Such a cool twisted dark unique tune.
act like I belong here!
solo ¡!!!!!
te gek
vooral het pletten
My dad used to sing this song to me when I was little. It scared me at the time, but I like it now. Thanks for the upload.
Scary good, that's what it is.
