JIMMY WAS WAITIN' ON
SHELBY JEAN
IN THE PARKIN' LOT
AT THE DAIRY QUEEN
HE KNEW
SHE'S GONNA
BE THERE SOON
THEN THEY'LL
BLOW THIS TOWN
LIKE A CHEAP BALLOON
SHE CAME IN CRYIN'
THIS MORNIN'
AT THE STORE
SAID I SWEAR JIMMY
I JUST CAN'T
TAKE NO MORE
SO HE QUIT HIS JOB
AND DREW HIS PAY
NOW HE'S
HELPIN' SHELBY
MAKE HER GETAWAY
AND OH
SITTIN' ON GO
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
NO MORE BEATIN'S
TO BE DENIED
NO MORE BRUISES
THAT MAKEUP CAN'T HIDE
ALL THESE YEARS
SHE'S TRIED TO
LOVE THAT MAN
BUT ALL
HE EVER GAVE HER
WAS THE BACK
OF HIS HAND
NOW JIMMY'S
A YOUNG BOY
JUST OUT OF HIS TEENS
SO MANY THINGS
THAT HE STILL
HASN'T SEEN
BUT HE'S OLD ENOUGH
TO KNOW WRONG
FROM RIGHT
THAT'S WHY
HE'S HELPIN' SHELBY
MAKE HER BREAK
TONIGHT
AND OH
SITTIN' ON GO
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
DROVE ALL NIGHT
DROVE ALL DAY
JIMMY LISTENED
TO EVERYTHING
SHELBY HAD TO SAY
HOW SHE'D SUFFERED
AT HER LOVER'S HAND
HE SAID HONEY
I WANNA
CHANGE ALL THAT
IF I CAN
THEY PULLED OVER
TO TAKE A LITTLE REST
SHELBY PUT
HER HEAD DOWN ON
JIMMY'S CHEST
AND SHE COULD
HEAR THE BEATIN'
OF HIS HEART
AND IT SOUNDED LIKE
THE RHYTHM OF
A BRAND-NEW START
AND OH
SHE'S GONNA
LET HIM KNOW
SHE'S WAITIN'
ON SUNDOWN
SHE'S JUST
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
YEAH THEY'RE
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
WAITIN' ON SUNDOWN
