Lyrics

Road into Music City on a Saturday night
The streets were lined with people and the skyline was bright
Looking for some rest and a place to think
She said meet me at the Crying Wolf for music and drinks
So I took a turn at the river and wound up on the east side
Some hipsters by the front door were making a play
Purple hair and thrift store threads gave em away
One wore a shirt that said make coffee not war
I cracked a grin at the both and they looked at the floor
I shook my head at the thought: what's become of the east side?
All I wanna do is have a quiet night
Grab a table in the back and get out of sight
Put your feet up and let your hair down
I don't want no trouble in this music town
But what else was there to do
At the Crying Wolf
Grabbed a table in the corner and was watching the band
She said she felt like moving as she grabbed at my hand
The band was playing Skynard and the floor was a mess
She gave a spin around backward in her long, black dress
And I realized I'm too old to be out on the east side
All I wanna do is have a quiet night
No more dancing, no more drinking, no more bar room fights
Put my feet up, and let my hair down
At a budget hotel in this crazy town
But I was out of luck
At the Crying Wolf
A pack of smokes, some Ray-Ban glasses and a cowboy hat
Where strewn out on the patio as we stumbled out back
I grabbed my keys off the table and ran to the truck
Need a break from all the madness but was down on my luck
So, I hit the road at half past midnight and got out of the East side
All I wanna do is have a peaceful night
So tired of sweating under all these Broadway lights
Put my feet up, and let my hair down
Somewhere down south of this fancy town
But I was plain old stuck
At the Crying Wolf
But I was out of luck
At the Crying Wolf
