Listen to me, baby,
|
There's something you must see.
|
I want to be with you, gal,
|
If you want to be with me.
|
|
But if you got to go,
|
It's all right.
|
But if you got to go, go now,
|
Or else you gotta stay all night.
|
|
It ain't that I'm questionin' you.
|
To take part in any quiz.
|
It's just that I ain't got no watch
|
An' you keep askin' me what time it is.
|
|
But if you got to go,
|
It's all right.
|
But if you got to go, go now,
|
Or else you gotta stay all night.
|
|
I am just a poor boy, baby,
|
Lookin' to connect.
|
But I certainly don't want you thinkin'
|
That I ain't got any respect.
|
|
But if you got to go,
|
It's all right.
|
But if you got to go, go now,
|
Or else you gotta stay all night.
|
|
You know I'd have nightmares
|
And a guilty conscience, too,
|
If I kept you from anything
|
That you really wanted to do.
|
|
But if you got to go,
|
It's all right.
|
But if you got to go, go now,
|
Or else you gotta stay all night.
|
|
It ain't that I'm wantin'
|
Anything you never gave before.
|
It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon,
|
It'll be too dark for you to find the door.
|
|
But if you got to go,
|
It's all right.
|
But if you got to go, go now,
|
Or else you gotta stay all night.
