It was a rainy night
At the Drive-in bar
And everyone else was gone
A classic rock and roll
Radio station was on
And I had too much to think about
The way the world goes 'round
The children all are crying out
But it gets lost in one big sound
And the girls in the stockings and boots
With the mini skirt, leather jacket,
Dying roots want the boys that Smoke cigarettes and love livin' loose
Don't ask me why
Just come and love me wrong
To your favorite song
The sun is goin' down
Won't you take me into town
And I ran out of quarters
At a quarter til 3
But the jukebox is jangling
Still stranglin' me
I'm at the end of my rope
And I should take a lease out on hope
But my credit's no good
So now I'm flyin' down
Whiskey Island Dr.
A little worse for wear
But I'm still alive
Got a semi-automatic smile
For when I can start to feel the miles
And I had too much to think about the Way the world goes 'round
The children are crying out loud
But it gets lost in one big sound
Don't ask me why
Just come and love me wrong
To your favorite song
The sun is goin' down
Won't you take me into town
Don't ask me why
Just come and love me wrong
To your favorite song
The sun is goin' down
Won't you take me into town
