You're comin' tonight
To my home town
I've been to yours many times before

And it's always been a thrill

You'll stay in a hotel

Or at friends near by
We haven't spent the night together in this town
Since nineteen seventy nine

Not such a long time

I can steal a melody

Of this I am allowed
'Cause you would never sue me baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird


Have a drink after the show
I might really want to know

But everything you say I oppose
I blame it on my hole
It's just my role


I can steal a melody
Of this I am allowed

'Cause you would never sue me baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird


I spend my time trying to forget you
With booze and smoke from cigarettes and dope
I only seem to forget myself

It's only you that is left

I can steal a melody

Of this I am allowed
'Cause you would never sue me baby
I can steal a melody

This I am allowed
You would never sue me baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird

It'd be weird, it'd be weird

You're comin' tonight

To my home town
