In the room In the room I for you Ya for me
Rain came down, Say, what you think, it's outside, you said, "So what" You turned the record player on, had a smoke, up Walked across to the in a cloud of mist, couldn't resist
A kitty stepped in the and she rapped the door Found the key in the letter box, she the door Walked into the room and said, "What's on?"
"I just got back down the road, I gotta couple a bottles of wine Somethin' to you on, what-a you think of that?" I said, "Sit down cat, pull up a seat, soakin' wet Take off your coat and hat, your feet on the mat"
In the room In the room I for you Ya for me
I said, "What time is it Charlie, did we go all day? You seem to get nowhere and do nothin' but sit at each other" He said, "I know, I doin' the same thing for weeks"
I look at the clock and all of a sudden I'm It to me, it goes, "Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock", ah-huh The kid he said, "I don't know you guys do But I workin' so hard lately that I can only just fall asleep in bed"
So he played some sounds and grooved a while Somebody out some cherry wine, cherry wine And we talked about was goin' on in the music world And things
The rain came down like it came never before Down, came down, it came, rain, rain, And I said, "Baby what time is it, time is it, tell me what time is it? "Ah, four-thirty"
So I peeked 'round the corner, the An there ya go, there's another girl that's home from school Lookin' so cool, learned her As to Zs
And said, "Hey man, look funny All the girls comin' home from school and they're sittin' Talkin' and drinkin' and all them other things"
And Charlie said to me, "Ya what?", I said, "What?" He said, "Man, you gotta go out there and do for yourself Feel you wanna make it or else you gonna be sittin' 'round here nothin' "
I said, "You're right, I said, "You're so right" He said, "I know", I said, "Do ya?" Said, "You know, you're records, cuttin' records right You through that"
An' just through all the time, gonna be out on the road I'm out on the man, on the, on the highway And the colors are run
All of a sudden, don't ya feel safe the next gig, you gotta it "I said, "Yeah I feel safe, I said, "Yeah, you I can't stay here all the as much as I'd like to But, I just learned all day and all night"
