Michael Stanley In The Heartland
It's 10:35 in the heartland Make your move or you never will The boys are out on Mayfield Everybody dressed to kill Some of them got raises Some of them just got time Some think about last season Some think about life of crime
[Chorus] And I say hey baby We're gonna have time tonight Hey darling would you like a ride? The girls says maybe I've got a little time to kill and baby you feel like trying It'd be just like flying But nobody writes the names down Just something that gotta go through Yeah nothing seems to work out the way they planned And some of them think about leavin' Not many of them ever do Give it one more try tonight in the heartland In the heartland
On a hundred and fifth at midnight Brothers chose up sides Dark is full of ladies Long to be right Well on the west side punks supply And the rich boys come around And ask them if they can leave it alone Even though their growing prime
[Repeat Chorus]
But nobody writes the names down Just something that gotta go through Yeah nothing seems to work out the way they planned And some of them think about leavin' But not many of them ever do Give it one more try tonight in the heartland In the heartland In the heartland In the heartland In the heartland
