Been on the road for six months now
Been meetin' girls in every town, and
Late night bar scenes
They're all that I see
She showed up after I played one night
My blue eyed dixieland delight
To lead her on
Was probably wrong
So don't, don't tell her I can't stay
Don't Tell her I can't play a little longer
Hang another day or two
Don't, don't tell her I can't wait
Don't tell her there's a plane a couple hours away
Until we're through
Two steppin in the Texas moonlight
Never had a dance that feels like this tonight
I might change my mind
So don't, don't tell her I can't stay
Don't Tell her I can't play a little longer, and
Hang another day or two
Don't, don't tell her I can't wait
Don't tell her there's a plane a couple hours away
Until we're through
Maybe I've been fallin in love
The whole time
But If I didn't tell you
It'd be a lie
So, I'll tell her I can't stay
I'll tell her I can't play a little longer
Hang another day or two
So, I'll tell her I can't wait
I'll tell her there's a plane about an hour away
There's nothing I can do
Baby I've got to go, but I love you
