She's simple
don't need much
But she's impossible to read
At the right place
at the right time
I know exactly what she need
But she don't need a drink
Ain't nothing I could say
Best be good and ready
When Whitley starts to play
Under them neons
She loves to be on
Those patched hardwood floors
With dusted up boards
Spinning all night long
And under them neons
If the band plays
the right song
There's a real decent chance
She'll be looking for a dance
Under them neons
We danced around it
a few times
And that's the only time
I've come close
I hope tonight when
this song ends
She'll say
Baby don't let me go
She don't need pickup lines
Like every guy
that's tried before
Just gotta take her hand
And lead her out on that floor
Under them neons
She loves to be on
Those patched hardwood floors
With dusted up boards
Spinning all night long
And under them neons
If the band plays
the right song
There's a real decent chance
She'll be waiting for a dance
Under them neons
When it's last call
and the last song
Girl I hope you're in my arms
Oh when the story don't end
with the last chord from a band
Under them neons
Oh you know she'll be on
Those patched hardwood floors
With dusted up boards
Spinning all night long
And under them neons
If the band plays
the right song
There's a real decent chance
She'll be looking for a dance
Under them neons
I won't miss my chance
When she's waiting for a dance
Under them neons
