Tell me woman Who you're with tonight If you're on your own That's allright But if you don't want me with you Don't waste my time with your jive Do you have a place Where we could go? Or does your mother Want you home? Don't waste my time I don't have long It's hard to find a woman When you know you'll soon be gone So break the rules And tell me "yes" I'll prove to you That love is best But if you don't want me with you Don't waste my time with your jive In this big city I'm high and dry- I just can't make out Though I try So if you don't want me with you Don't waste my time with your jive
