Hometown Blues
|
|
Baby can't wait, baby gotta go
|
Gotta do a number on a late night show
|
Do a little song, do a little dance
|
Gonna make the best of her big chance
|
|
It don't really matter if she don't or if she do
|
Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues
|
|
I gotta friend, gotta little girl
|
Says she's the best in the whole wide world
|
Said it's so good, said it's unreal
|
Might not last, but it's no big deal
|
|
It don't really matter if she don't or if she do
|
Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues
|
|
Baby, save me, save me
|
Save me with your sweet smile
|
Honey I really need you
|
To help me kill little bit of time
|
|
All of the girls run with a crowd
|
They go wild when the lights go down
|
They gotta little money, live in a dream
|
Wanna be the queen of their little scene
|
|
It don't really matter if she don't or if she do
|
Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues
