(Dorsey Burnette)
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We gotta get on home
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We've been gone too long
|
Too bad (too bad)
|
We shoulda checked our time
|
Can't phone (can't phone)
|
We done spent ev'ry dime
|
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We're 'bout to run outta gas
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We gotta get home fast
|
Can't speed (can't speed)
|
We're in a slow-down zone
|
Baby, look at that clock
|
Why can't it be wrong
|
|
If we coulda left home at a quarter to nine
|
Woulda had fun and plenty of time
|
We got started just a little bit late
|
Hope this won't be our last date
|
|
Look up (look up)
|
Is that the moon we see
|
Can't be (can't be)
|
Looks like the sun to me
|
It's late (it's late)
|
I hate to face your Dad
|
Too bad (too bad)
|
I know he's gonna be mad
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We gotta get on home
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We've been gone too long
|
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We're 'bout to run outta gas
|
It's late (it's late)
|
We gotta get home fast
|
Can't speed (can't speed)
|
We're in a slow-down zone
