Start up the engine and get back home
Hurry go tell mother
Johnny got a gun to shoot a squirrel
He put down your brother
Daddy ain't no where to be found
It's getting way past midnight
Momma she's left here to cry alone
While I steal a kiss in the moonlight

This place is slow and I just want to go
Find myself a self in a all night town
It's more than I deserve I know
But Baby don't let me down
Beauty has poisoned me ?

Better than the Bugs in the cotton
Now I gotta have another drink
To kill all the pains' I've gotten

This place is slow and I just want to go
Find myself a self in a all night town
It's more than I deserve I know
But Baby don't let me down
Baby don't let me down

All the crops have gone to seed
The maze has turned into clover
Silos emptied the gins closed down
Somethings you never get over

This place is slow and I just want to go
Find me some love in an all night town
It's more than I deserve I know
But Baby don't let me down

This place is slow and I just want to go
Find myself a self in a all night town
It's more than I deserve I know
But Baby don't let me down
Baby don't let me down
