Wastin' Time With You Songtext / Lyric

(Carlene Carter/Howie Epstein/Benmont Tench)



Get out of bed you sleepy head

And shake a leg or two

The sun is up, pour some coffee in the cup

The rent is way past due

Could I rewind the hands of time

Back to my wasted youth

I'd lay the days all out in a line

And waste my time with you






The freeway's like a parkin' lot

And I'm runnin' low on time

I'm workin' double shifts to find

I'm barely scrapin' by

What I would give if I could live

The way the rich folks do

Just kickin' back in my cadillac

And wastin' time with you



We could take the time so hard to find

And wrestle it to the floor

Then wake up and do nothin' like it's never been done before



Sometimes at night my thoughts ignite

In dreams of great escape

A couple sticks of dynamite

And no more workin' late

I'm sure the cops would understand

They're workin' people too

And I'd like to take this chance to thank

Those hard workin' boys in blue



Just kickin' back in our cadillac

And wastin' time with you

Just wastin' time with you

I wanna be wastin' time with you
