It was 2.00 am when I hit town again

And I jumped off the big freight trai-ain

As quite as a mouse, I went to Bonnie's house

And I tapped on her window pa-ane



She said come on in, you look soaked to the skin

Get out of the wind and rai-ain

She sat on her bed and she smiled as she said

It's good to have you back again



Turn out the light, make the most of the night

I'm only here till mornin'

Turn on the stove and the firelight glow

The wind and the rain are ca-a-allin'



Bonnie wept tears of joy for her long lost boy

Down on her bended knee-ee

I was tempted to stay, but the very next day

I knew it could never be-ee



So I got up slow, I said I really gotta go

Goin' back to the wind and rai-ain

But Bonnie sleep light, some cold grey night

You know I'm comin' back again



Turn out the light, make the most of the night

I'm only here till mornin'

Then I must go from the firelight glow

The wind and the rain are ca-a-allin'



Turn out the light, make the most of the night

I'm only here till mornin'

Then I must go from the firelight glow

The wind and the rain are ca-a-allin'



Turn out the light, make the most of the night

I'm only here till mornin'

Then I must go from the firelight glow

The wind and the rain are ca-a-allin'



Turn out the light, make the most of the night

I'm only here till mornin'

Then I must go from the firelight glow [fade]
