Closin` Time At Home Lyrics

Closin` Time At Home

(Toby Keith/Michael Crossno)

 

 Budweiser clock says it's almost twelve

 I tipped the bartender, he rang that old bell

 San Bernardino nights are great, but they sure don't feel like home

 Right now in Tulsa they've turned up the lights

 The band has stopped playin', they've called it a night

 She's makin' her way to the front door, I know

 She won't be leavin' alone

 

 If it's midnight in California, must be closin' time in Oklahoma

 I know that she's already danced another night away

 And these West Coast nights sure seem colder

 Knowin' somebody else's arms will hold her

 Midnight in California means it's closin' time at home

 

 I thought this distance between us might help me forget

 But I've been here two weeks and it ain't happened yet

 A change of scenery hasn't done a thing to change her mind

 

 Oh, these West Coast nights sure seem colder

 Knowin' somebody else's arms will hold her

 Midnight in California means it's closin' time at home

 

 Yeah, midnight in California means it's closin' time at home
