99 In The Shade Lyrics
I feel I'm burning up with fever
But the fire's feeling really good tonight
And it's alright
I'm gonna see Sahara Jack and Suntan Sally
Somebody tells me even Tommy's coming down tonight
If Gina says it's alright
I'm gonna see those Senoritas
Lying under the sun
They're greasing it up
With know I want to be their blanket
Gonna tell every girl
Hey, baby... You're the one...
Oh tell the boys I'm on my way
I got the radio blasting in my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
When the sun goes down that's when the street heats up
Senorita Margarita fills your empty cup tonight -
She make you feel alright
A good time here don't cost much money
Just a little sweet talking and a pretty native honey
And you're set for life
Or one hell of a nigth
I'm gonna see those sons of beaches
Out there living it up the surf
And the sand,
Man that life ain't so tough
So get me in the action so I can tell
Every girl she's the one
Oh tell the boys I'm on my way
I got the radio blasting in my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
But the fire's feeling really good tonight
And it's alright
I'm gonna see Sahara Jack and Suntan Sally
Somebody tells me even Tommy's coming down tonight
If Gina says it's alright
Lying under the sun
They're greasing it up
With know I want to be their blanket
Gonna tell every girl
Hey, baby... You're the one...
I got the radio blasting in my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
Senorita Margarita fills your empty cup tonight -
She make you feel alright
Just a little sweet talking and a pretty native honey
And you're set for life
Or one hell of a nigth
Out there living it up the surf
And the sand,
Man that life ain't so tough
So get me in the action so I can tell
Every girl she's the one
I got the radio blasting in my old man's Chevrolet
I got a party in my pocket cause you know I just got paid
And I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade
I'm feeling fine, it's 99 in the shade

Just a fun song about enjoying life. Bon Jovi rock because they realise that music was meant to be for fun.
I agree....it's about having fun with life, enjoying it for what it is. Great song. Great band.
This song sounds great when you are driving on a long straight road. Anyway, the whold album New Jersey sounds great when you are driving full stop!

i love this song! bon jovi is such a great band! they song is carefree and fun and something easy to sing along to to! i love bon jovi! richie and jon rock!
Note to everyone: TOMMY AND GINA are mentioned in many of Bon Jovi's songs. the stories his lyrics tell often make a lot of sense if you notice the names he uses. Bon Jovi really knows how to have fun with music!! Love this song, best band in the world! New jersey is my favorite album :)
I remember "99" was also Don Adams' wife from the 60s. She was always in his shade. lol.
**Barbara Feldon was his wife's name, She most known as "99" to this day and one of the hottest women from the 60s.
