Gonna Go Out Tonight
Matt Robert

Gonna go out tonight
Find me a girl
Won’t ask too many questions
Let me take her for a whirl

And maybe if the lights ain’t too bright
She’ll look at me and I’ll look all right

And maybe if I keep my mouth real quiet
We can share a drink and maybe – just maybe – she’ll buy it

And if she pulls me close and squeezes my trunk
We can get up to dance without her knowing I’m too drunk

Gonna go out tonight…

And if she sees a glint of warmth in my eyes
She’ll listen to me telling all of my sweet lies

And if the band fills the room with songs like birds
She’ll never hear me falling all over my words

And if I fill her hands and her mind with drink
She’ll never get around to stop and to think

Gonna go out tonight…
