Lady of the Evening

Sawyer Brown · Out Goin' Cattin' [Capitol] [1986]

She's got my picture in her locket

I got my hand in her back pocket

Walkin" through the night, in our home town

We take our time as we go strollin'

We might go to a movie, might go bowling

She just says we'll take on what the night will bring



chorus

'Cause she's a lady of the evening

But only just for me man

I'm a wonderin' why she set her likes on me

She's got me overflowing

'Cause she keeps me knowin'

I'll be doin' my leavin'

With a lady of the evening tonight



It was the first time that I asked her

In the hallway when I passed her

To go with me to the drive-in, in my daddy's car

Well we called it rockin' and reelin'

Oh and I still get that old feelin'

When she looks in my eyes the way she still can



chorus

'Cause she's a lady of the evening

But only just for me man

I'm a wonderin' why she set her likes on me

She's got me overflowing

'Cause she keeps me knowin'

I'll be doin' my leavin'

With a lady of the evening tonight



chorus

'Cause she's a lady of the evening

But only just for me man

I'm a wonderin' why she set her likes on me

She's got me overflowing

'Cause she keeps me knowin'

I'll be doin' my leavin'

With a lady of the evening tonight
