Lyrics
He gets paid to take chances,
And he knows how to deal.
He wears gloves made of leather
And a smile made of steel.

With his five o’clock shadow
And his heart of pure gold,
He will always be Bogie,
And he’ll never grow old.

She’s a girl who’s in trouble,
All her nights are like years.
She wears dresses of satin
And a necklace of tears.

She was Ida or Ingrid
Till along came Bacall.
But he’ll always be Bogie,
And he’s king of them all;
Yes, the king of them all.

He makes love with a wisecrack
‘Cause he’s wise to her schemes.
So, “Here’s lookin’ at you, kid.”
He still walks in our dreams.

Watch him knock back a whiskey
While she straightens her seams.
He will always be Bogie,
And he walks in our dreams.
