Winding paths

through tables and glass

First fall was new

Now watch the summer pass

So close to you.



Too late to keep the change,

Too late to pay,

No time to stay the same

Too young to leave.



No pass out sign on the door

set me thinking

Are waitresses paying the price

of their winking?

While stars sit in bars and decide

what their drinking,

They drop by to die 'cause it's

faster than sinking.



Too late to keep the change,

Too late to pay,

No time to stay the same

Too late to keep the change,

Too late to pay,

No time to stay the same

Too young to leave.



Find out that now was the answer

To answers that you gave later

She did the things

that we both did before, now,

But who forgave her.



If I could stand to see her crying

I would tell her not to care.

When she learns of all your lyin'

Will she join you there?



Country girl I think you're pretty,

Got to make you understand,

Have no lovers in the city,

Let me be your country man.

Got to make you understand.
