DRIVE ALL NIGHT

Live 27 Jul 2012 version

[Spoken intro:] Alright. Whoa! You're good, you're good out there. That's what we expect when come over here to Gothenburg. This is a little something special just for you. I think we played this last time we were here, but I don't think we played it since. (chuckles) Ready Roy?

When I lost you honey, sometimes I think I lost my guts too
I wish God would send me the word, send me something I'm afraid to lose
Lying in the heat of the night, we're prisoners all our lives
I get shivers down my spine, girl, all I wanna do is hold you tight

Well I swear I drive all night again just to buy you some shoes and to taste your tender charms
And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms, oh yeah, oh yeah

Well tonight there's fallen angels and they're waiting for us down in the street
And tonight there's calling strangers, hear them crying in defeat
Let them go, let them go, let them go do their dances of the dead
Let 'em go right ahead, girl, uh-hu-hu, you just dry your eyes
And come on come on come on come on, let's go to bed

Baby baby baby, I swear I drive all night again just to buy you some shoes and to taste your tender charms
And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms, oh yeah, oh yeah

[saxophone solo]

There's machines and there's fire waiting on the edge of town
They're out there for hire but baby they can't hurt us now
'Cause you've got, you've got, you've got, you've got my, my love, girl, you've got my love, girl, oh-ho
Through the wind, through the rain, the snow, the wind, the rain
You've got, you've got my, my love, oh girl you've got my love
You've got, you've got my love, oh girl you've got my love
You've got, you've got my love, oh girl you've got my love
You've got, you've got my love, oh girl you've got my love
Heart and soul, heart and soul, heart
Now take it easy baby
And don't cry now
Just take it easy darling
Come to be and don't cry now (don't cry now)
No don't cry now (don't cry now)
No don't cry now (don't cry now)
Dry your eyes pretty darling (don't cry now)
No don't cry now (don't cry now)
Oh don't cry now (don't cry now)
No darling don't cry now (don't cry now)
Dry your eyes pretty baby (don't cry now)
No darling don't cry now (don't cry now)
Go!

Well darling I swear I drive all night again just to buy you some shoes and to taste your tender charms
And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms, oh yeah, oh yeah
And I swear I drive all night again
Darling I swear I drive all night again
Darling I swear I drive all night again
Baby I swear I drive all night again

[saxophone solo]
Baby baby baby
