I just got back from down the road Gotta couple a bottles of wine, somethin' to turn you on What-a you think of that? (think of that, girl) (Think of that girl) I said, Sit down cat, pull up a seat, you're soakin' wet Take off your coat and hat, wipe your feet on the mat In the back room (in the back room) In the back room (in the back room) I waited for you (waited for you) Ya waited for me (waited for me) I said, What time is it Charlie, where did we go all day? Seem to get nowhere and do nothin' but sit lookin' at each other He said, I know, I been doin' the same thing for weeks I look at the clock and all of a sudden I'm hypnotized It speaks to me, it goes tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, ah-huh The kid he said, I don't know what you guys do but I been workin' so hard, lately that I can just only fall asleep in bed So he played some more sounds and grooved a while Somebody brought out some cherry wine, cherry wine And we talked about what was goin' on in the music world And other things Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha The rain outside came down like it came never before Down, came down, it came, rain rain rain And I said, Baby what time is it, what time is it, tell me what time is it? Ah, four-thirty So I peeked 'round the corner, the blind An' there ya go, there's another girl that's comin' home from school Lookin' so cool, just learned her A's to Z's And said, Hey man don't look funny, all the little girls comin' home from school And they're sittin', talkin' and drinkin' and all them other funny things A-ha-ha-ha And Charlie said to me, Ya know what? I said, What? He said, Man you gotta go out there and do somethin' for yourself Feel like you wanna make it or else you gonna be sittin' 'round here like, nothin' I said, You're right, I said You're so right He said, I know ha I said, Do ya? Said, You know you're cuttin' records, cuttin' records right You come through that An' just through all the time you're gonna be out on the road I'm out on the backseat man, on the, on the highway And the colors are gonna run All of a sudden don't ya feel safe the next gig, you gotta make it I said, Yeah I feel safe I said, Yeah you know I can't stay here all the time as much as I'd like to But, I just learned about all day and all night And dig sounds, and go down to the river And once the artists go through the motions Gotta do my thing, aah-ah (in the back room) ah-ah Gotta do my thing (in the back room) In the back room (in the back room) FADES- In the back room (in the back room) (Transcribed by ear; corrections requested and welcomed!
