Lyrics

Take it easy with me boy I'm only 17
I know what I know but I can't see what you see
One night in Heaven is all I can think
Let me swallow my pride and take my last drink

Take it easy with me Ma, You see I'm 23
I'm old enough to drink and I can die for free
What worries me more or puts lines on my face
Is being too long to walk back in this place

Chorus:
The sound of the night is a Lonely Hearts Chorus
It's fat and demanding beating into me
I shake the dust from my feet and I tell you I'll walk

Take it easy with me boy you see I'm 52
I'm sorry I say because it's all I can do
Your Mother and I we weren't meant for each other
I decided I'd leave just to keep us together

It's more than just pride that's flashing in my eyes
I'm sorry I say 'cuz it's all I can do

(Repeat Chorus)

I tint my glasses I shade my thoughts and I tell you I'll walk
