about

Obviously a huge nod to a bunch of my favourite artists on this one. Louis Jordan, Cab Calloway and Elvis Presley. Don't believe there would be a band without the influence of any of these artists.

lyrics

Long and lanky
tall and lean
making love like a machine
legs for miles
she’s got the style
but she’s burning through my money
like gasoline

Fe-fe-fi-fi-fo-fo-fum
I bring the money and she’s brings the fun
Move those pretty pretty gams and lets get around
Spending my business all over town

Long and lanky
tall and lean
making love like a machine
legs for miles
she’s got the style
but she’s burning through my money
like gasoline

Hi-diddy-hi-diddy hi-diddy-ho
Come on pretty baby grab your things lets go
Keep you shopping baby till my nuggets gone
If you keep me warm baby till the break of dawn

Long and lanky
tall and lean
making love like a machine
legs for miles
she’s got the style
but she’s burning through my money
like gasoline

There she goes cruising in my brand new ride
This angel picked me out and man I though I'd died
But she can spend money like an old oil sheik
And make it up to me with a kiss on the cheek
She’s a long and lanky, tall and lean
She’s the cutest little lady that I’ve ever seen
Long and lanky, tall and lean
And she’s burning my money like gasoline.

Oh-baby-baby-baby-baby-baby
Come on be my sophie you’re driving me a crazy
Plant those stems on me till I’m a beaming red
I got your honey little mama you got my bread

Long and lanky
tall and lean
making love like a machine
legs for miles
she’s got the style
but she’s burning through my money
like gasoline

The Dice Cubes Edmonton, Alberta

Rock ‘n’ roll is alive and well! The irresistible beat has been rooted deep in our musical consciousness. This is why The Dice Cubes seem both familiar and shockingly new. The Dice Cubes tap into this vibration while shaping their own distinct beat.
While The Dice Cubes have other styles of music at their fingertips, it is that bedrock pulse laid down in ’57, that resonates through their music! ... more
