It's Late

It's late (it's late)

We gotta get on home

It's late (it's late)

We've been gone too longToo bad (too bad)

We should a checked our time

Can't phone (can't phone)

We done spent every dimeIt's late (it's late)

We're 'bout to run outta gas

It's late (it's late)

We gotta get home fastCan't speed (can't speed)

We're in a slow-down zone

Baby, look at that clock, why can't it be wrong?

If we could a left home at a quarter to nineWould a had fun and plenty of time

We got started just a little bit late

Hope this won't be our last date

Look up (look up)Is that the moon we see?

Can't be (can't be)

Looks like the sun to me

It's late (it's late)I hate to face your Dad

Too bad (too bad)

I know he's gonna be mad

It's late (it's late)We gotta get on home

It's late (it's late)

We've been gone too longIt's late (it's late)

We're 'bout to run outta gas

It's late (it's late)

We gotta get home fastCan't speed (can't speed)

We're in a slow-down zone

Baby, look at that clock, why can't it be wrong?

If we could a left home at a quarter to nineWould a had fun and plenty of time

We got started just a little bit late

Hope this won't be our last date

Look up (look up)Is that the moon we see?

Can't be (can't be)

Looks like the sun to me

It's late (it's late)I hate to face your Dad

Too bad (too bad)

I know he's gonna be mad

It's late (it's late)We gotta get on home

It's late (it's late)

We've been gone too long

(It's late)
