You never know who may be listening to you
Take it away, don't you wanna stay
'Til the lights go down
'Til there's no one else around
Take it away, don't you wanna stay
Faded flowers, wade in the jar
Some important impresario
'Til there's no one else around
(Down, down)
Take it away, don't you wanna stay
Take it away, wanna hear you play
(In his hand, in his hand)
With a paper in his hand
'Til there's no one else around
Take it away, wanna hear you play
'Til there's no one else around
Sole survivor, carryin' a load
'Til the lights go down
'Til the lights go down
'Til there's no one else around
Take it away, take it away
Take it away, don't you wanna stay
(Down, down)
Lonely driver out on the road
Take it away, wanna hear you play
With a hundred miles to go
Has a message for the band
(You never know who may be listening to you)
Take it away, wanna hear you play
(Down, down)
After hours, late in the bar
Switches on his radio
'Til the lights go down
In the audience, watching the show
You never know who may be listening to you
Take it away, don't you wanna stay
By a darkened corner seat
