Frank Black - If It Takes All Night lyrics
Some call it the ribbon Some say the white line I say truckstop living Well it suits me fine Every day of the week (x2) We heard some other fellers talking I think it's going to be a good fight Tonight the radio is rocking I'm going to hear my favorite song If it takes all night (x5) I'm going to wash my favorite shirt In downtown Marseilles Its got the same old dirt From up in Calais, oh oh How many days and weeks? (x2) Now every job it is important But still sometimes the money's right I saw the ghost of Johnny Horton He said we're going to make el paso If it takes all night (x8) I lost my favorite cook He left little Siam For many years I looked He said here I am, oh oh Every day of the week (x2) Some got to go and see their mama Some got to play a show tonight I got to go and see my baby When next I sleep I'll be with her If it takes all night (x16)
