I was hopeless, heartless, and helpless too
I was singin’ and skiddin’ on my knees
I was left out in the cold, I had nobody there to hold me
People won’t you tell me what was I supposed to do
All of these nights I’ve been a fool to sit home wasted
All of these nights I sat alone my heart was achin’
Looked like a dope with the blues
I couldn’t see no hope in sight
But I’m patchin’ up my jeans
And find somethin’ cool to take a ride in
Hop into my old chevvy, and go cruisin’ for the drive-in
I got me a little money, gonna find myself a honey tonight
This could be the night, the night I’ve waited for
This could be the night, no other night like this before
Gonna pick her up about quarter, quarter to seven
You know we’re gonna take a trip, a trip to heaven
And if it’s love she’s wantin’
Then you know I’m gonna give her some
Yes I know
This could be the night, the night I’ve waited for
This could be the night, no other night like this before
