Punching the clock
There never is a right time
Checking my watch
I'm stuck here in my prime
As he kicks back another
I don't wanna
I'm just driving baby all night
Order a dozen
Twice as much as last time
Make it a double
But buddy get it right
And he just won't stop laughing
I don't wanna
I'm just driving baby all night
He's on the phone
Waking up all his friends
I'll be alone
When this night ends
Tripping the light
My baby's burning brighter
Trip on his feet
My baby is a fighter
And he's sure he is winning
I don't wanna
I'm just driving baby all night
He's at the bar
Trying to make amends
I'm in the car
When will this night end?
Throwing them back
Then move on to a new place
Out on the street
Screeching to a tuneless rage
Like it's karaoke
I don't wanna
I don't wanna
I'm just driving baby all night
