Baby can't wait, baby gotta go
Gotta do a number on a late night show
Do a little song, do a little dance

Gonna make the best of her big chance

It don't really matter if she don't or if she do

Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues

I gotta friend, gotta little girl

Says she's the best in the whole wide world
Said it's so good, said it's unreal
Might not last, but it's no big deal


It don't really matter if she don't or if she do
Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues


Baby, save me, save me
Save me with your sweet smile

Honey I really need you
To help me kill a little bit of time


All of the girls run with a crowd
They go wild when the lights go down
They gotta little money, live in a dream

Wanna be the queen of their little scene

It don't really matter if she don't or if she do

Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues
