I seen her at the front door
I couldn’t stand it anymore
the band was playing so loud
you couldn’t talk you had to shout
so when I asked her for a dance
she thought I said a romance

hey, baby
hey, baby
hey, baby
hey, baby
hey baby, come on darlin’ don’t ya call me names

well I could see without a doubt
I better sit this one out
walkin’ off the dance floor
slipped on a loose board
I bumped a girl and had to hug
she thought I tried to jitterbug

hey baby (repeat)

come on darlin’

I woke up on the front lawn
I found myself home at dawn
I wasn’t feelin’ any pain
when I dropped my key chain
fell against the window screen
I heard my old lady scream

hey baby (repeat)
