Lyrics
I met me a woman the last time I played this town - she told me she was an expert in the art of "getting down" - she told me she'd take me to places I'd never been - I said "well now honey - that rfemains to be seen" - and she said -
Chorus:- Take the long way home - I'm in the mood for having some fun - Take the long way home - and don't you dare stop until I'm done.
Well we drove that car way up on Mulholland drive - she said she was gonna show me just what it meant to be alive - I only did to her what she was doing to me - we did the boom boom boogie and set our spirit's free - and she said -
Chorus
We kept on going til we saw dawn's first light - it was then that she told me she was a creature of the night - she told me she had enjoyed our night of fun - and she was very sorry but she could not exist in the sun - and she said -
Chorus - repeat to fade.
