(Nanci Griffith)
|
Well, I work this corner from eleven to five
|
The hands get cold around midnight
|
You're askin' me if I've got the time... well I don't know
|
But you're wastin' mine tonight
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Whoa... you say you're looking for the time
|
Well, I'm a workin' girl... you just wasted mine
|
If you ain't got money... take it down the avenue
|
'cuz I ain't got time for you... until daylight
|
|
This sidewalk ice is cold as steel...
|
I'm not Dorothy... I can't click my heels
|
One of these days I'll move to L.A.
|
Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Don't the snow light up the midnight sky
|
The snow plows roll and the limos fly
|
Don't cha know it's just another night
|
|
Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right
|
He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine
|
Oh, I wish you had the money and I had the time
|
'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
