Take me to the place where the white boys dance
Take me to the place where they run and play
My baby is gone, you might have a chance
Just take me to the place where the white boys danceThey hug in silence as the sun sets
On their empty street
Her suspicions, well they're rising high
And the man who sweeps him off she doesn't meetShe walks inside and pours a strong one
To put her mind at ease
Its the calm before another storm
Her brain shifts from the whiskey to the keysTake me to the place where the white boys dance
Take me to the place where they run and play
My baby is gone, you might have a chance
Just take me to the place where the white boys danceHer heart is racing, she phones a friend and says
I'm in an awful place
That fools been messing 'round on me
Ive seen it in his eyes and on his face"Hold on a minute, you're talking crazy
Don't be that jealous, girl
Just tell Levon you need an hour or two
'Cause were gonna go and change somebody's worldTake me to the place where the white boys dance
Take me to the place where they run and play
My baby is gone, you might have a chance
Just take me to the place where the white boys danceIt's the calm before another storm
It's the calm before another storm
Her brain shifts from the whiskey to the keysTake me to the place where the white boys dance
Take me to the place where they run and play
My baby is gone, you might have a chance
Just take me to the place where the white boys dance
