I snuck out of the house that night I knew that she were going Now we are all down at the Bond Dance Hall not a care in this old world Howling out into the night "At sundown," howling out "At sundown" She'd given me reason to think the thoughts that young men do Some promises you just can't keep and now she's lighting up the room So I set out across the floor, I want more Now we're really moving I am really moving We are really moving April 13th, 1928 It fell upon a Friday it's always been such a very ominous date Just off the court square The best kids in this town are there They heard the blast for miles around Soon people started showing We will always dance over this town They'll just have no way of knowing now we're really moving I am really moving It ain't life we're losing I wish I could prove that April 13, 1928 Never growing old at first thought doesn't sound like a terrible fate Just off the court square The best kids in this town are there
