I like to stay out late

I never compromise

There's always some excuse

For livin' like I do

I'm a midnight man

I'm just a full blown fool

But in the morning

I come home to you

Girl, you always understand

You understand this kind of man

You know just what I am

People tell me, I'm a longshot

They tell me, I'm a hotshot

And it's a longshot

I'm ever gonna change

I love to run around

I never fall in love

It's just a waste of time

I love a winnin' hand

Ain't just got no chance

Without lookin' back

I take my chances

I play the cards

Where they may land

Girl, you always understand

You understand this kind of man

You know just what I am

People tell me, I'm a longshot

I say for certain, I'm a hotshot

And it's a longshot

I'm ever gonna change

I like to stay out late

I never compromise

There's always some excuse

For livin' like I do

I'm a midnight man

I'm just a full blown fool

But in the morning

I come back to you

Girl, you always understand

You understand this kind of man

You know just what I am

People tell me, I'm a longshot

They tell me, I'm a hotshot

And it's a longshot

I'm ever gonna change

Long shot

I know for certain

I'm a hotshot (yeah)

It's a longshot

I'm ever gonna change
