Steve Earle — Out in the Parking Lot

[Verse 1] Sittin' on a fender of someone else’s truck Drinking Old Crow whiskey and hot 7-Up Out in the parking lot You can hear the band playing right through the wall Ain't no cover charge and no last call Out in the parking lot Now there's a couple of cowpokes puttin’ up their dukes Wasn't much to it after both of them puked Out in the parking lot Now someone called the police and the police finally came Wrote them a couple of tickets, took a couple of names Out in the parking lot [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Oops, there's a couple who couldn't wait to get home They're probably in love, let's leave them alone Out in the parking lot Now the band is on the bus, and they're all loaded up to leave The drummer's got a girlfriend and she’s tugging at his sleeve Out in the parking lot [Chorus] I love to see the neon dancing on the gravel I love to hear the pick-up trucks come unravelled Some have given up, some have given in Everybody lookin’ for a friend [Outro] Now everybody's gone, they’ve shut out all the lights The dust begins to settle and it's never been so quiet Out in the parking lot
