[Intro 2x]
Dsus Dsus [every line of every verse]
You've got a baby pretty as a Creole queen
And my old man's got eyes of blue and green
But you took me dancing when our lovers weren't around
You called it losing time in the in between
Ohh ohh ohh
Could be all the booze we drank in Austin
Could be we're just scared of growing old
Could be this ain't no way of living
But there ain't nothing like that rock 'n roll
Chorus
And when that light shines on you baby you know it - soothes my soul
Finding time to lose with you is water - in the dust bowl
I got arms to hold me every night
But I'm still sleeping - with a ghost
Your kisses are so sweet and slow
It feels alright as long as they don't know
We rolled out of a hotel room in Georgia
Just in time to say a quick goodbye
But you don't even look over your shoulder
You're thinking how you'll look your baby in the eye
Chorus
Swe - et like sugarcane
Slo-ow like a midnight train
You like to call me every now and then
And I just can't wait to lose some time again
lose some time again
Chorus
... as long as nobody knows
Nobody knows
