Downtown

Well, all the parties on the streets are talking
Store front mannequins sleeping in lights
We used to smoke while we
Were jaywalking like it was your birthday
Every other saturday night
Knew the bands so we never payed our cover
Wrote our names on the bathroom tiles
We never dressed to impress all the others
They would let us in on a laid back kind of style
But, boy, you know it's been a while
I don't know why you don't take me
Down town like you got anywhere better to be
Talk it up and give me the
Go round round like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
Then I should be countin on you at my door
Did you forget about how we went around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
Ohhhhhhhh, anymore
I got some platforms sitting in the corner
They wanna stroll on a city sidewalk
I got a dress that'll show a little, uhhh uh, but you ain't getting, uhh ohh, if you don't come pick me up (damn)
Show me off (wow!), you might be tired but I'm not!
And I don't know why you don't take me
Down town, like you got anywhere better to be
Talk it up and give me the
Go round round like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
Then I should be countin on you at my door
Did you forget about how we went around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
Ohhhhhhhh, anymore
And I don't know why you don't take me
Down town like you got anywhere better to be
Talk it up and give me the
Go round round like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
Then I should be countin on you at my door
Did you forget about how we went around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
Ohhh anymore, ,yeaaaaah, don't know why you don't take me downtown
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
I just don't get it
