Justin Townes Earle – Maybe A Moment lyrics

Get in the car for me
Know there's nothing to do around here during the week
So we're going to Memphis to get out of town
Going to Memphis to mess around

I got a bottle of Thunderbird in the trunk
I know a place if there's anything you want
This old man runs the store
He'll sell anything to anyone
But I don't know what times it closes up

So think about it
But baby, don't take too much time

Maybe only a moment
May be the time of your life

The boys might look rough
But they’re not tough, between me and you
Though they can be cruel
Like the girl Les is going on about
He just said she's got a pretty mouth

So you see
What I'm dealing with
How's the old saying go
With friends like this


Don’t worry or weep
I'm bound to be back by morning time

Maybe only a moment
May be the time of your life

Come on
Baby, come on
Ain't you ever stayed out all night long

I know your brother
He don't scare me
Why do he need to tell your mamma anything
If I'm bothering you, let me know
Ain’t we damn near grown?

Maybe it's Tuesday
Maybe it's damn near midnight
Maybe only a moment
May be the time of your life
Maybe only a moment
May be the time of your life
