Now the lights go low on the avenue
|
And the cars pass by in the rain
|
University boys and the girls fill the bars
|
While I'm just waiting for the light to change
|
And the steam heat pours from the bodies on the floor
|
In the basement where the Jacknives play
|
For the hub city girls in the ribbons and the curls
|
Who know the meaning of staying out late
|
The know the meaning of staying out very, very late
|
Singing
|
|
Who does it better than we do
|
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
|
Woah, nobody knows
|
I've been crazy for so long without you
|
|
They'll find me beat down out in the universe
|
Though I'll never forget where I'm from
|
I might have moved away from home
|
And slept out there on my own
|
A million miles away in the stone
|
But the beat never leaves
|
And the temple's a relief
|
To my aching bones, rambling all over
|
And if I'm gone for too long
|
I can always hum along
|
So don't never forget what I told you
|
So don't never forget what I told you
|
Everybody singing
|
|
Who does it better than we do
|
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
|
Woah, nobody knows
|
I've been crazy for so long without you
|
|
Just, baby who sings the rhythm and the blues
|
So sad, so slow, so smooth
|
Like I do, like I do
|
And oh, ain't it just like you want to
|
And oh, ain't it just like you always wanted to
|
Every night waiting
|
So long without you
|
|
Baby, who sings it better than we do
|
Them sopranos in Andy Diamond's choir
|
Woah, nobody knows
|
I've been crazy for so long without you
|
Just, baby who sings the rhythm and the blues
|
So sad, so slow
|
Like I do
|
And just like you want to
|
