Lyrics
OUT TOO LATE
©2025, Rokit Music, ASCAP
When the party runs late and you're way across town
Don't forget I'm still waitin' around
To see you come home and make sure you're okay
Yeah, I'm sittin' here alone in this easy chair
Half asleep, drank a beer over there
But I just wanna know you're alright
It'll make my night
CHORUS:
So/And/And don't stay out too late
No don't you stay out on that date
When it's time to come home just head on back
If you're a couple minutes late
I'll cut you some slack
But girl (But boy) (But no) don't stay out too late
END: Out too late, no no no, don't stay out too late
V2:
That young man that you're clingin' to
He'd better take good care of you
No excuses, that's just how it is
We had a little talk when he came to the door
I said, if you wanna come around anymore
Well, I'm gonna trust ya
But don't let me down
BRIDGE:
That's my little girl's heart
You've got in your hand
She's the apple of my eye
I hope you understand
She means everything to her momma and me
So you'd better be nice
As nice as you can be
