In the room In the room I for you Ya for me
Rain came down, Say, you think, it's raining outside, you said, "So what" You the record player on, had a smoke, stood up Walked across to the joint in a cloud of mist, couldn't
A kitty stepped in the hall and she the door Found the key in the letter box, she the door Walked into the room and said, "What's on?"
"I just got back from down the road, I gotta couple a of wine Somethin' to turn you on, you think of that?" I said, "Sit down cat, pull up a seat, you're wet Take off your coat and hat, your feet on the mat"
In the back In the room I for you Ya for me
I said, "What time is it Charlie, did we go all day? You seem to get and do nothin' but sit lookin' at each other" He said, "I know, I been doin' the same for weeks"
I look at the clock and all of a I'm hypnotized It to me, it goes, "Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock", ah-huh The kid he said, "I know what you guys do But I been workin' so lately that I can only just fall asleep in bed"
So he played some more and grooved a while Somebody brought out some cherry wine, wine And we talked about was goin' on in the music world And things
The rain outside came down it came never before Down, down, it came, rain, rain, rain And I said, "Baby what time is it, what time is it, tell me time is it? "Ah, four-thirty"
So I 'round the corner, the blind An there ya go, there's another girl that's home from school so cool, just learned her As to Zs
And said, "Hey man, look funny All the little girls comin' home from school and sittin' Talkin' and drinkin' and all other funny things"
And Charlie to me, "Ya know what?", I said, "What?" He said, "Man, you gotta go out there and do somethin' for Feel like you wanna make it or else you gonna be 'round here Like "
I said, "You're right, I said, "You're so right" He said, "I know", I said, "Do ya?" Said, "You know, cuttin' records, cuttin' records right You through that"
An' just through all the time, you're be out on the road I'm out on the backseat man, on the, on the And the are gonna run
All of a sudden, don't ya feel the next gig, you gotta make it "I said, "Yeah I safe, I said, "Yeah, you know I can't stay here all the time as much as I'd to But, I learned about all day and all night"
"And dig sounds, and go down to the And once the go through the motions Gotta do my thing, aah-ah, ah-ah do my thing"
