Wastin` Time With You Lyrics

(Carlene Carter/Howie Epstein/Benmont Tench)

Get out of bed you sleepy head
And shake a leg or two
The sun is up, pour some coffee in the cup
The rent is way past due
Could I rewind the hands of time
Back to my wasted youth
I`d lay the days all out in a line
And waste my time with you

The freeway`s like a parkin` lot
And I`m runnin` low on time
I`m workin` double shifts to find
I`m barely scrapin` by
What I would give if I could live
The way the rich folks do
Just kickin` back in my cadillac
And wastin` time with you

We could take the time so hard to find
And wrestle it to the floor
Then wake up and do nothin` like it`s never been done before

Sometimes at night my thoughts ignite
In dreams of great escape
A couple sticks of dynamite
And no more workin` late
I`m sure the cops would understand
They`re workin` people too
And I`d like to take this chance to thank
Those hard workin` boys in blue

Just kickin` back in our cadillac
And wastin` time with you
Just wastin` time with you
I wanna be wastin` time with you
