lyrics

If you need her
Look her up
Her numbers on the back
Of a service station bathroom door

Want love in your cup
Pick her up
Take her out for piña coladas
And maybe something nice to eat

She don’t come cheap
But you’ll get what you pay for
Maybe sometimes
Even a little more

She’d rather sell her love
Than sing her songs
To another empty
Barroom floor

Spend your Christmas with Rita
She’s as fine as a woman can be
If you have the good fortune to meet her
Don’t try and keep her to yourself
She won’t be put upon the shelf
She doesn’t need your love or sympathy
Rita, spend a little time with me

When she was young
She met someone who told her
She was gonna be
A shining star

But as she aged
His interest waned
And she became
Another no name, just drinking at the bar

Spend your Christmas with Rita
She’s as fine as a woman can be
If you have the good fortune to meet her
Don’t try and keep her to yourself
She won’t be put upon the shelf
She doesn’t need your love or sympathy
Rita, spend a little time with me

She walks two flights down
To the busted hinges of
Her apartment
Door

Her sullied clothes
Fall in a gentle heap
On the cold tiles
Of her bathroom floor

Past her reflection
In the bathroom mirror
The glory days
That faded long before

Spend your Christmas with Rita
She’s as fine as a woman can be
If you have the good fortune to meet her
Don’t try and keep her to yourself
She won’t be put upon the shelf
She doesn’t need your love or sympathy
Rita, spend a little time with me
Oh, Rita, spend your Christmas with me
