Title: Don't Drop That Dime lyrics
Post by: BlowUpYourVideo on July 16, 2007, 03:51:30 PM
Anyone know these for sure? This is the best I can come up with. I have absolutely no idea what is sung after don't start that shit tonight but other than that, this is what I hear.

As soon as you walk in the front door
You're drunk on the vine
You're the craziest bitch I'll ever find
Like I said, I walk in the front door
Sometimes you chase me in through the out door
Don't start that shit tonight

And when I lay there and I dream
It's all their faces that I see
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet Caroline o' mine
Don't drop that dime on me tonight

(Yahoo)

It all begins with that old sinking feeling
Never start drinkin' rye
I can smell the crazy comin' out in that hard rain tonight
Like I said, I walk through the front door
Another woman shoots promptly out the back door
I'll get busted and I'll probably get busted once I try some more
Yeah

And when I lay there and I dream
It's all their faces that I see
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet Caroline o' mine
Don't drop that dime on me tonight

(Yeah)

(Yeah, ooh)

(Hey)

(Yoo)

Oh, the pain so sweet
Oh, the game so mean

(I caught your lie)
I caught your lie
(I drove all night)
I drove all night
You cherish whispers when I sleep

Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet girl of mine, o' mine
Don't draw that gun on me tonight
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Don't shoot that gun of mine
Don't shoot that gun at me tonight
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Don't shoot that gun o' mine
Don't shoot that gun at me tonight

This is just random speculation, of course, but anyone else think Weiland and the boys were referencing GnR's most famous song with lines in the chorus like "Sweet Caroline O'Mine" and, more blatantly, "Sweet Girl O' Mine". Given the fun nature of the song, it wouldn't surprise me.

Is Sweet Child O'mine a rip from Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond?

Don't care if it was a reference or not, just reminded me of it the first time i heard the song. Would have been funny if he actually said Sweet Child O' Mine instead of Sweet Girl O' Mine. :hihi:

It's only a rip if they intentionally took it from that song.  Otherwise it's just a coincidence.  I've never heard anything to suggest Axl is a Neil Diamond fan.

This is what it sounded like to me (Based on BlowUpYourVideo's and Wheres Izzy's posts)

As soon as you walk in the front door
You're drunk on the wine
You're the craziest bitch I'll ever find
Like I said, I walk in the front door
Sometimes you chase me in through the out door
Don't start that shit tonight
them po-lice ain't that kind...

And when I lay there in a dream
It's all their faces that I see
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet Caroline o' mine
Don't drop that dime on me tonight

(Yahoo)

It all begins with that old sinking feeling
Then we start drinkin' rye
I can smell the crazy comin' out in that hard rain tonight
Like I said, I walk through the front door
Another woman she's barkin' at the back door
I'll get busted and I'll probably get busted once I try some more
Yeah!

And when I lay there in a dream
It's all their faces that I see
Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet Caroline o' mine
Don't drop that dime on me tonight

(Yeah)

(Yeah, ooh)

(Hey)

(Yoo)

Oh, the pain's so sweet
Oh, the game's so mean

(I caught your lie)
I caught your lie
(I drove all night)
I drove all night
Your cherished whispers when asleep

Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Sweet girl of mine, o' mine
Don't draw that gun on me tonight

Don't drop that dime
Don't drop that dime
Don't shoot that gun o' mine
Don't shoot that gun on me tonight

Don't drop that dime
(Like I said, I walk ... door)
Don't drop that dime
(Another ... back door...)
Don't shoot that gun o' mine
(I'll get busted and I'll probably get busted...)
Don't shoot that gun at me tonight
