The band had just started when they walked in the door
|
He sat her at a table and strolled out on the floor
|
He grabbed the first sweet thang that gave him the eye
|
And left the door open for the steal of the night
|
Three dances later she was still in her chair
|
He was still on the dance floor like he didn't care
|
So I eased on over, there was no ring in sight
|
And I found myself facing the steal of the night.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
She was the steal of the night,
|
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
|
He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight
|
I held her close and it felt so right
|
She was the steal of the night
|
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
|
He left her lonely and the pickings were right
|
She was the steal of the night
|
|
We danced every slow one the band could play
|
Was it ever this easy for ole Jesse James
|
Had the gold in my hands and the banker was blind
|
Just inches away from the steal of the night
|
When the band stopped playing we walked to the car
|
As I closed the door he ran out of the bar
|
Saw him shaking his fist under the parking lot light
|
As I strolled away with the steal of the night
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
