Never Make Your Move Too Soon Lyrics

  Send "Never Make Your Move Too Soon" Ringtone to your Cell  

(Will Jennings, Nesbert Hooper Jr.)

Three days of snow out in Birmingham

Thought you would wonder where I am

Called up your number all night long

No consolations on the telephone

Ran out and caught that midnight flight

Thought a little loving  would make everything all right

But, no!

Landlord said, "You'd moved away

And left me all your bills to pay"

It's too bad, baby, you might have made your move too soon

I think you might have made your move too soon, girl

Now, look here

Left me out here with a Keno card

Life in Vegas really ain't so hard

Ran it up to about fifty grand

Cashed it in and held it in my hand

That kinda money gets the word around

And makes a lost love come up found

I hear you knocking baby at my door

You ain't living here no more

I tried to tell you before

But you made your move too soon

Now I'm gonna play!

All right, now I'm just going to tell you one more thing

Well, I've been from Texas down to Tokyo

Okinawa back to Ohio

Never tried to make the news

I'm just a man that loves to play the blues

Take my guitar everywhere

Now, if you people don't like it, I really don't care

Crowd jumps up and the band falls down

Love to see us rolling into town

Because the people know, well, we never make our move too soon

Never make your move too soon

Ya made your move too soon, girl

Ya made your move too soon, baby....babe

I think ya made your move too soon

Let's hear it for all the chickens that died in the heat wave

Two millions chickens, God Almighty

In Arkansas, down in Oklahoma, by God

Texas, Arizona
