Take Me Home With You

This old heart’s a flutter
And the moon’s on the fade
And the stars fallen out of the sky
I’d trade my tomorrows
For a minute of sweet talk
And the come on look in your eye
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Honey take me home with you tonight
Tobacco stained harlots, and towheaded trollops
Border the record machine
Bumming a smoke, from a gullible bloke
And lying about places they’ve been
Your hair is a mess, and your shirt isn’t pressed
Honey is there a ghost of a chance?
Of leaving this dump, and taking you home
And giving you one night’s romance?
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Honey take me home with you tonight
Your well put together, and fit for your age
It looks like you’ve been round the block
Don’t put me on hold, leave me out in the cold
It’s nearly eleven o’clock
I’ve been wandering round
This mouldy old town
And the bands playing Lefty Frizzell
I drink to remember, I smoke to forget
And the bartenders ringing last bell
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Take me home with you
Honey take me home with you tonight
Honey take me home with you tonight
Honey take me home with you
