Take it away
Want to hear you play
'Til the lights go down
Take it away
Won't you want to stay
'Til there's no one else around

Take it away
Want to hear you play
'Til the lights go down
Take it away
Won't you want to stay
'Til there's no one else around

Lonely driver
Out on the road
With a hundred miles to go
Sole survivor
Carrying the load
Switches on his radio

Take it away
Want to hear you play
'Til the lights go down 
(Down down)
Take it away
Won't you want to stay
'Til there's no one else around
Mmmmmm,mmmmmm
Take it away
Want to hear you play
'Til the lights go down 
(Down down)
Take it away
Won't you want to stay
'Til there's no one else around

In the audience
Watching the show
With a paper in his hand
(In his hand, in his hand)
Some important impresario
Has a message for the band

Take it away
Want to hear you play
'Til the lights go down 
(Down down)
Take it away
Won't you want to stay
'Til there's no one else around

You never know who 
May be listening to ya
(You never know who) 
(May beListening to ya)
(You never know who) 
(May beListening to ya)
Take it away  
Take it away

After hours
Late in the bar
By a darkened corner seat
Faded flowers wait in the jar
'Til the evening is complete
