Take it away Want to hear you play Till the lights go down Take it away Don't you want to stay Till there's no one else around? Take it away Want to hear you play Till the lights go down Take it away Don't you want to stay Till there's no one else around? Lonely driver Out on the road With a hundred miles to go Sole survivor Carrying the load Switches on his radio Take it away Want to hear you play Till the lights go down (down down) Take it away Don't you want to stay Till there's no one else around? (Repeat) In the audience Watching the show With a paper in his hand (In his hand, in his hand) Some important impresario Has a message for the band Take it away Want to hear you play Till the lights go down (down down) Take it away Don't you want to stay Till there's no one else around? You never know who may be Listening to you You never know who may be Listening to you Take it away - take it away After hours Late in the bar By a darkened corner seat Faded flowers wait in the jar Till the evening is complete
