Well, Josie walks around
Like she's bought herself some brand new clothes
Singing to herself
Swinging for the sidewalk Jones
She's got a cousin down in Reno
Says, "The money is coming fast"
So she's packing it up
But her Mama says, "It ain't gonna last"
Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won't stop now
Well, the late night
Broken down army ain't got no wheels
He was leaning on an El Dorado
Just to see how it feels
He's got his hands in his pockets
Janglin' a dollar in change
Leaving just as soon as
He can get a job down in L.A.
Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won't stop now
Your love's not sure, your heart needs time
Take all you want, but don't take mine
Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won't stop
Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won't stop now
