Old Arrows - What Kept You All Night? (Demo) Lyrics




Don't hide from me, and don't lie to me
Tell me where have you been, boy, what's kept you all night?
With your friends, drunk and singin', and staggering the streets?
Oh where have you been, boy, what's kept you all night?

In the arms of another, who don't know you like I do,
With no good enough love for to keep you all night?
Or when the factory working girl walked home in the low moonlight
Was her arm linked in your arm?
What kept you all night?

What reason could there be for you to run away from me?
You said we'd get married on a cliff by the sea
But your heart's not here, and your thoughts aren't with me
Is runnin' on your mind?
Please lay it out on the line for me now, baby

Now I'll be honest and plain, girl, I wasn't playin' no games
When work let out, I went to buy you that diamond ring
Well, I took all I'd earned from slavin' 'cross town
I walked thirteen blocks and i laid my money down

With that ring in my pocket and my heart filled with pride
I was on my way to you, when two men followed close behind
I tried to defend, though it would mean my life
They took that ring girl
And I took their knife
