Lights on the motor bike shine through the bars on my face
'Cause I walk through the alley with a smile and a guitar case
I climb on the stairs and reflect on the night we spent
I'm thinking about what you said and what it meant
You said, "Come back down, come back down, Joe"
I go down to see her in the late afternoon
She ain't easy to find she's always moving, moving
She's kicking back coffee with Anthony telling jokes
I say, "Girl if we don't go soon we're gonna miss the show"
She says, "Come back down, come back down, Joe"
So we go down to see if we can get on a list to play
And I go in walking like I own the place
We wait our turn, but we don't wait long
Me and Miss Jenny just singing our songs in a row, yeah we're on a roll
She says, "Come back down, come back down, Joe
Come back down, come back down"
Scarecrow's in full bloom tonight as they take the stage
So we say goodbye to Zachariah and we get on our way
And on the way home I say, "Tell me a story please, please"
She says, "Did you ever hear the one about the duck that got stuck in a street?
Says I huffed and I puffed and I shooed him away
How do I stop the sunset in the middle of the day
I watched him grow wings and fly away, fly away"
Night's almost through but she wants to sing me a song
Said I love how you sing, girl, but it's just a little too long
'Cause there's only four seasons and this one's almost gone
These nights feel so good and this one's almost gone
She says, "Come back down, come back down, Joe"
She says, "Come back down, come back down"
She says, "Come back down, come back down, Joe, come back tomorrow
Maybe we'll take a date
Maybe we'll grab a drink or see a movie or I don't know"
