There was a bad boy in the school yard Waited on you every day Seemed like every time you turned around Well he was standin' in your way Well he broke
I seen the bright lights of Memphis And the Commodore Hotel And it was there beneath the streetlamp Where I met a southern belle Well she took me
I walked down to the park last night Warm breeze stirring up a soft moonlight And my mind started drifting to way back when Yes I do think about you
One night while I was out a ridin' The grave yard shift, midnight 'til dawn The moon was bright as a readin' light For a letter from an old friend
I burned my hand, I cut my face Heaven knows how long it's been Since I've felt so out of place I'm wonderin' if I'll fit in Debbie and Charley
I can tell by the way you've been turning men down Not your ordinary guy is gonna do You've been waitin' for that someone Who can turn your head around
He could see the storm clouds rollin' across the hill He barely beat the rain in from the field And between the backdoor slammin' she heard him say
in her laughter There was a softness in her eyes And on the air there was a hunger Even a boy could recognize She had a need to feel the thunder To chase
This ain't comin' from no prophet Just an ordinary man When I close my eyes I see The way this world shall be When we all walk hand in hand When
I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the starlight Just like we used to do I'm always walkin' after midnight Searching for you I walk for miles

She wants something with a ring to it Like a church bell makes Like a pretty white gown to wear And some vows to take She wants something with a ring
I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the starlight just like we used to do I'm always walkin' after midnight And searchin' for you I walk for miles
was a bad boy in the school yard He waited on you every day Seemed like every time you turned around Well, he was standin' in your way Well, he broke
