Motley Crue's first single off of the album of te same name "Girls, Girls, Girls", was released on May 11, 1987. It peaked on Billboard Hot 100 chart at #12 and #20 on Mainstream rock charts.
The song of course refers to strip clubs, The Tropicana, Seventh Veil and the Body Shop in Los Angles, California on the Sunset strip.
Then there was the Marble Arch in Vancouver, British Colombia in Canada, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida's Thee Dollhouse, Crazy Horse, Paris, France and Tatletales in Atlanta.
Due to nudity in the first video, MTV banned the "Girls, Girls, Girls". The music video was shot at the Seventh Veil employing the girls from the Tropicana, which was Vince Neil's favorite club, and from the Seventh Veil.
GIRLS, GIRLS,GIRLS,
Friday night and I need a fight
My motorcycle and a switchblade knife
Handful of grease in my hair feels right
But what I need to make me tight are
Girls, Girls, Girls,
Long legs and burgundy lips
Girls
Dancin' down on Sunset strip
Red lips, fingertips
Trick or treat - sweet to eat
On Halloween or New Years Eve
Yankee girls ya just can't be beat
But they're the best when they're off their feet
Girls, Girls, Girls
At Thee Dollhouse in Fort Lauderdale
Girls, girls, girls
Rocking Atlanta at Tattletale
Girls, girls, girls,
Raising hell at the Seventh Veil
Have you read the news
In the Soho Tribune
Ya know she did me
Well then she broke my heart
I'm such a good boy
I need a new toy
I'll tell ya what, girl
Dance for me, I'll keep you overemployed
Just tell me a story
You know the one I mean
Crazy Horse, Paris, France
Forgot the names, remembered romance
I got the photos, a menage a trois
Must have broke those Frenchie's laws with those
Girls, Girls, Girls
Body Shop. Marble Arch
Girls, girls, girls
Tropicana's where I lost my heart.
Girls, Girls, Girls
