(verse)
E
Well, all the parties on the streets are talking, store front mannequins sleeping in lights.
A
We used to smoke while we were jaywalking like it was your birthday every other saturday night.
E
Knew The bands so we never payed our cover.
E
Wrote our names on the bathroom tiles.
A
We never dressed to impress all the others,
A B
They would let us in on a laid back kind of style.
B
But Boy you know it's been a while.
(chorus)
E
I don't know why you don't take me down town like you got anywhere better to be.
A
Talk it up and give me the go round round like a good time tease.
E
I'm only countin' on your cancellation,
E
Then I should be countin' on you at my door.
A
Did you forget about how we went around,
A E A
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore, ohhhhhhhh anymore.
