Bowling Green

You can break it and shake it with the whole town

But you can't expect what used to be to be the same now

There's a light bulb that's been blazing in the hall, babe

But time will make fools of us all

And time will make fools of us all, babe

The higher up you get, then the further down you've gotta fall

This life had me walkin' on a short leash, like a dog

But your love has got me tugging at its sleeve

And I know you shouldn't bite the hand that feeds

But give me something I can just hold on to

Those Bowling Green nights were stirring something inside of you

And maybe it's something in the way you kick off your little blue shoes

But baby, hey, Bowling Green started something

Well, we've fallen before and we won't be fooled again

And if love is just a game then I've been learning how to win

Spent a lifetime just a-waitin' on your call, babe

But time will make fools of us all

And time will inevitably make fools of us all the way

But I promise that I'll live until my dying day

This life had me walkin' on a short leash, just like a dog

But your love has got me tugging at its sleeve

And I know you shouldn't bite the hand that feeds

Just give me something to believe

And give me something I can just hold on to

Those Bowling Green nights were stirring something inside of you

And maybe it's something in the way you kick off your little blue shoes

But baby, hey, Bowling Green started something

You leave me shot down

Hand in glove

And you leave me shot down

In the name of love

And you leave me shot down

With your cloak and dagger, baby

But if you're gonna shoot me down

Then you'd better kill me

Or give me something I can just hold on to

Those Bowling Green nights were stirring something inside of you

Maybe it's something in the way you kick off your little blue shoes but baby, hey

Bowling Green started something

Or give me something I can just hold on to

Bowling Green nights were stirring something inside of you

And maybe it's something in the way you kick off your little blue shoes but baby, hey

Bowling Green started something

It's really started something now

It's really stirring something now

And it's something in my soul

Ohhhhh something in my soul

Something in my soul

Something in my soul, yeah
