Baby can't wait, baby gotta go

Gotta do a number on a late night show

Do a little song, do a little dance

Gonna make the best of her big chance

It don't really matter if she don't or if she do

Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues

I gotta friend, gotta little girl

Says she's the best in the whole wide world

Said it's so good, said it's unreal

Might not last, but it's no big deal

It don't really matter if she don't or if she do

Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues

Baby, save me, save me

Save me with your sweet smile

Honey I really need you

To help me kill a little bit of time

All of the girls run with a crowd

They go wild when the lights go down

They gotta little money, live in a dream

Wanna be the queen of their little scene

It don't really matter if she don't or if she do

Just tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues
