I been waiting in my car Living off cigarettes and candy bars What else can I do Don't ya know I'm sweet on you And I'm a reasonable girl I don't talk too much I don't cause a fuss And when the time is right I'm gonna rock your world I'm a reasonable girl I'm a reasonable girl I been living in my head Memorizing every word you said I was ready to take your name But how can I love you when you're running away And I'm a reasonable girl I don't talk too much I don't cause a fuss And when the time is right I'm gonna rock your world I'm a reasonable girl I'm a reasonable girl Talk is cheap and people are dumb Don't wanna hurt you boy just wanna have some fun I'm gonna lock the door and through away the key Now baby won't you reason with me And I'm a reasonable girl I don't talk too much I don't cause a fuss And when the time is right I'm gonna rock your world I'm a reasonable girl I'm a reasonable girl I'm a reasonable girl I'm a reasonable girl

Coming on like a tidal wave you crash into the ground All the things you could not say it don't matter now Sometimes it's hard to know when to stay and when to go Is it time to go? Is it time to go? Coming on like a tidal wave right from the start It's a crime they all know your name bu they don't know your heart Sometimes it's hard to know when to stay and when to go Do you have to go? Do you have to go? Coming on like a gentle rain after the storm You been living in so much pain it can't hurt you anymore Did you always know when to stay and when to go? Is it time to go? It's time to go I hear a band of angels I hear a band of angels I hear a band of angels I hear a band of angels Singing you home Singing you home Welcome home

I remember sneaking out to the Wilcox Mistral Show I couldn't have been more than 13 I wasn't allowed but I just had to go so I made my way through the cold dark woods until I could hear the band I held my breath I opened the door praying lord help me if you can It was a midnight ramble Everybody came to get down Midnight ramble Every last person in the whole damn town Was shaking and singing and stomping their feet It weren't like nothing it was a midnight ramble And I was only 13 I walked on into the room and my eyes started to burn There were people laughing and smoking and drinking just about everywhere I turned The man playing guitar well he knew how to bend them strings That whole band had whole room jumping from the floor up to the beams It was a midnight ramble everybody came to get down midnight ramble Every last person in the whole damn town Was shaking and singing and loosing their minds but after all it was Saturday night At the midnight ramble And I was feeling just fine There was Levon a boy from school trying to catch my eye I didn't know just what to do but I told myself this ain't no time to be shy So I took his hand and he pulled me close and we started to groove In the back of my mind I heard my mama say, you know damn well this ain't what good girls do At the midnight ramble Everybody came to get down Midnight ramble Every damn person in the whole damn town was shaking and singing and speaking in tongues and it wasn't over till we saw the sun At the midnight ramble I learned how to have fun Now that was many years ago i have since grown and moved away but I still think about that little old shack in the woods to this very day I make my living singing these songs tryin to get the people to dance but you know where'd I be in a red hot minute if I had the chance I'd go to the midnight ramble Where everybody came to get down Midnight ramble Every damn person in the whole damn town was shaking and singing and going buck wild and you couldn't stop it even if you tried it was a midnight ramble And I was just a child

You been letting everybody down Now you tell me that you're leaving town But you owe me Don't act like you don't owe me You can tell me anything you want You know I love it when you talk that talk Why don't you show me C'mon baby show me 'Cause I'd like to start over again I'd like to be a better friend I know it's easy to pretend that it's fine It's not fine but it's your and it's mine And we should give it what we got Give it what we got Give it what we got Yeah we should give it what we got give it what we got give it what we got The truth is a bitter friend The truth is likely to bend I'm not scared of being alone I just get nervous that I won't get home Until you hold me C'mon baby hold me 'Cause I need to see it in your eyes I need to know you're on my side I know it's easy to run and hide from the truth my dear But the truth is it's never been so clear that we should And we should give it what we got Give it what we got Give it what we got Yeah we should give it what we got give it what we got give it what we got And I know you have a broken heart But I know we were built to fall a part I have loved you right from the start can't you see It's just me And we won't know if it's over or if it's meant to be until we Give it what we got…
