Lyrics
Hey Babe, I've been wonderin
What's been keeping you gone this time?
Daddy, I've been thinkin.
Things are gonna turn out just fine this time, cause.
We've been kickin around this town for a while.
We've been talkin to folks and havin a smile.
We should get up and go while the gettin is good.
Let's all paint the town red cause you know that we could.
Know that we should.
Mama! What you cookin.
Sure does smell sweet.
My belly's gettin hungry
And I sure would like to eat a treat. cause,
We've been kickin around this town for a while.
We've been talkin to folks and havin a smile.
We should get up and go while the gettin is good.
Let's all paint the town red cause you know that we could.
Know that we should.
Honey, I'm gettin sleepy.
Gonna need to lay with you for a while.
Baby, give me some lovin.
Take this frown and make it a smile for a while. cause,
We've been kickin around this town for a while.
We've been talkin to folks and havin a smile.
We should get up and go while the gettin is good.
Let's all paint the town red cause you know that we could.
Know that we should.
