Lyrics for Song: Don't Wait on Me
Lyrics for Album: Gold [2006]
When the sun wakes up in the west and lays it's head down in the east
When they ordain Madlyn O'Hare and she becomes a priest
When a San Diego sailor comes home with no tattoo
When the lights go on at Wrigley Field I'll be comin' home to you.
But don't wait on me (little darlin'), Lord can't you see (little darlin')
I only go (no farther), no guarantee
Don't wait on me (and when you see) that's somethin' I (just can't do)
Never have and don't (intend to), don't wait on me.
When the wind don't blow in Chicago and L.A. is cold and clear
When they unfurl Old Glory, and no one stands to cheer
When my brother in law phones me and the charges aren't reversed.
When the cabbie don't want a bigger tip I'll be slidin' home from first.
So don't wait on me (little darlin'), Lord can't you see (little darlin')
I only go (no farther), no guarantee
Don't wait on me (and when you see) that's somethin' I (just can't do)
Never have and don't (intend to), don't wait on me.
When you load up on a long shot and you win by half a nose
When the Fourth of July parade is called because it snows
When the waiting room is empty and the doc says come right in
When Christmas comes before New Years, I'll be commin' home again.
But don't wait on me (little darlin'), Lord can't you see (little darlin')
I only go (no farther), no guarantee
Don't wait on me (and when you see) that's somethin' I (just can't do)
Never have and don't (intend to), don't wait on me.
Don't wait on me, don't wait on me,
Don't wait on me, don't wait on me...
