I heard this song on a classic rock station and don't know the artist or the title.?

Question

The chorus goes something like this:

rita, oh oh ohaoh oh oh

i couldnt pick up on the rest of the lyrics

Answer 1

If it was a dude singing, I think it might be the song called Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs. He's kind of a mumbler, so it's hard to understand a lot of the words.

I went back and found the lyrics for you...

Lido missed the boat that day he left the shack
But that was all he missed, and he ain't comin' back
At a tombstone bar in a jukejoint car he made a stop
Just long enough to grab a handle off the top
Next stop Chi-town, Lido put the money down, let it roll
He said, one more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it, one for the road

Lido, whoa, he's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa, he said, one more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it, one more for the road

Lido be runnin' havin' great big fun until he got the note
Sayin' tow the line or blow it, and that was all she wrote
He be makin' like a beeline headin' for the borderline
Goin' for broke
Sayin' one more hit oughta do it, this joint, ain't nothin' to it
One more for the road

Lido, whoa, he's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa, one more job oughta get it
One last shot and we quit it, one more for the road

Answer 2

Lido Shuffle by Boz Scaggs (70's) song. Sounds like the one you want to me. Somebody had the words right, but the title and artist wrong. This record album is in my collection and the album title is Silk Degrees.

Answer 3

I think you are talking about:
ARTIST: Boz Scaggs
TITLE: Lido Shuffle

Here's the chorus:
Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh
He said one more job ought to get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One more for the road

Answer 8

Are you sure it wasn't: "Lito, oh ah oh". It might have been the Lito Shuffle by Bozz Scaggs:

Lido missed the boat that day he left from Jax.......
But that was all he missed, & he ain't comin' back.

On a Gator field surrounded by a hoard of fans he made a stop.
He snagged pass, he returned a punt, he put UF o-ver the top.

Next stop Tally-town, Lido put his foot down & let it roll........
He say, "one more score oughta' get it, One last TD 'fore we quit it"
One for the roooooad.........

Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh....
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lito's a-waitin' for another gooo.
Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh....
He said one more catch oughta get it,
One last shot, then we quit it
One more for the road...........

Lido be runnin', havin' great big fun 'til he got to Hoke
Sayin' "toe the line or blow it" and that was all he wrote.
Lito be makin' like a beeline, headin' for the endzone line,
goin' for broke.

Sayin, "one more score oughta do it"
'nother TD - ain't nothin' to it!!
One more for the road"

Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh....
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lito's a-waitin' for another gooo.

Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh....
He said one more score oughta get it,
One last I.N.T., then we quit it
One more for the roooooad

Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh....
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lito's a-waitin' for another gooo.
Lito, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh....
He said one more hit oughta get it,
One last score, then we quit it
One more for the roooooad
