Hat Trick - America

You, can I make it known

I’d like to take you home

You been away so long

I’d like to see you

But when I saw you at the local hop

I tried to take you but you made me stop

Then I saw that you were dancing with a rent-a-cop

Whoa, whoa!

The minute you pulled me through

You thought that then you knew

If not today, I’d find a way

To get to you

Just a little of nothin'

That’s all you had the time to give

Just a little of nothin'

Ain’t gonna make it worthwhile for me

If you’d only have listened

You’d have heard every word I said

Just a little of nothin'

Ain’t gonna make it worthwhile for me

Da, da, da …

Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin')

Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin')

Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin')

Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin')

Newton-under-Roseberry topping

And it’s cold and it’s wet

And you feel like you’re part of all time

Living in the gap between the echoes

Feeling it hot

And feeling it cold

As long as there are fish in the sea

Have a cup of tea

Oh, as long as there are fish in the sea

Have a cup of tea

'Cause you are running from the ring of the golden bell

Like a bat out of hell

You are running from the ring of the golden bell

Like a bat out of hell

You are running from the ring of the golden bell

Like a bat out of hell

You are running from the ring of the golden bell

Like a bat out of hell

There’s a lady across the hall

She’s telling me it’s all right (all right)

I’m tryin' to give her my all

She’s sayin' I’m uptight

Hell of a way to spend an afternoon

Saw a movie tonight

Got frightened and broke down (broke down)

Got a call in the night

My old lady just hit town

Take her away, she’s tryin' to turn me round

I’m nowhere to be found

I can’t unread the pages I’ve already read

And I can’t feed these ages left in my head

They’re already dead, yeah
