[Verse 1]
Me and Jiggs staring at the ceiling, the stars above the radar range
Song from a station wagon laying foundations on the shadows of overpa**ing planes
I'm feeling good, at 7 o'clock we're gonna drive 'cross the county line
And find Saturday night like an orphan child that the good days left behind
[Chorus]
Well, I'm not sure
That we can stay
The sun's going down
And it's another day
[Verse 2]
Me and my friends sitting in the park, drinking beer underneath the tree
Lyin' on your back as the sun goes down, you know it's perfect cause you've got to leave
On a Saturday night in a town like this, I forget all my songs about trains
A bar with a jukebox and you on my arm, heaven and earth are pretty much the same
[Chorus]
And I'm not sure
That we can make it stay
The sun's going down
And it's the end of the day
[Verse 3]
Later on, sitting on the porch, talking like the night could last all night
Like we are all half-crazy and all at least half-all right
Sittin' on the porch, singin' Townes Van Zandt, play guitar to burn off the hours
Yeah, we climb the fences at the edge of town and paint our names on the water towers
[Chorus]
Well, I'm not sure
We can make 'em stay
The sun's going down
At the end of the day
