Yeah, yes, yes
Have I told ya
You could really get it on?
I was at an all night diner
The sign said, "Triple X"
But they were talking about root beer
I'm just sitting down
Thinking about nothing
Looking at the thin air
Breathing up the oxygen
Have I told ya
You could really get it on?
A guy comes up, looking pretty 8-ball
Snaggletooth smile, sits down at my table
Puts his arm around me, starts to share his information
He said, he said, he said [x4] this is what he said
"I have sex, I'm always thinking about the pavement
So I can avoid premature ejaculation"
I got up, remembering to thank him
Better things to do so I'll start drinking
With the parties, unfortunately
I'm in Tahoka, now I'm gonna hook up
No one has any ideas, damn
Have I told ya
You could really get it on?
Have I told ya
You could really get it on?
I was at an all night diner
The sign said, "Triple X"

Thinking about nothing

You could really get it on?
A guy comes up, looking pretty 8-ball
Snaggletooth smile, sits down at my table
Puts his arm around me, starts to share his information

Better things to do so I'll start drinking
With the parties, unfortunately
I'm in Tahoka, now I'm gonna hook up
No one has any ideas, damn

You could really get it on?

ABitterBuffalo - It could be "payment" because the man could be talking about hookers. He's having sex them and once he's almost "there", he starts thinking about how much he owes her to prevent it. In other words, he wants his money's worth.
As far as the 8-ball thing is concerned, I have never heard of someone being described as "eight ball" unless drugs were involved (even in apparent 40's "slang"). Oh, and sometimes Olde English 800 is called an 8-ball, if maybe that helps.
