Never Make a Move Too Soon

Three days of snow down in Birmingham

Thought you would wonder where I am

Rang up a number all night long

It's no comfort on the telephone

Ran out and caught a midnight flight

Thought a little love ould make everything alright

The landlord said you moved away

And left me all of your bills to pay

Look out, baby

You might have made your move too soon

Left me with a keno card

This life in Vegas sure ain't hard

I ran it up to about 50 grand

Cashed it in and held it in my hand

That kind of word can get around

And make a lost love come up found

I hear you knocking, baby, at my door, but

You know you ain't living here no more

It's too bad

I think you made your move too soon

I've been from Spain to Tokyo

From Africa to Ohio

I never tried to make the news

I'm just a man who plays the blues

I take my loving everywhere

I come back and they still care, you know

One love ahead, one love behind

One in my arms and one on my mind

It's one thing, baby

I never make my move too soon

(I know baby, take it home B.B., let's go)

(Alright, okay)

Yeah, yeah

Do it, do it, do it, do it

Do it then

Do it, do it

Do it, do it

Do it, do it

Yeah

Alright

Do it now

You still

Yeah

I've been from Spain to Tokyo

From Africa to Ohio

Never tried to make the news

I'm just a man who plays the blues

I take my loving everywhere

I come back, you know they still all care

One love ahead and one behind

One in my arms, you know, one on my mind

And it's one thing, people

I never make my move too soon

Do it

Yes, it is

Yes, it is

Mm-hmm

Yeah, yeah

Yeah

Yeah, yeah

Do-do-do

Do-do

Do-do

Do-do-do-do

Do it, do it, do it

Alright now

Yeah

Yeah

Never make my move too soon

(Oh no, let me be, go to hell)

Yeah, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Do it, do it, do it, do it

Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it

Never make 'em too soon, babe
