INTRO: (repeat) VERSE I Well, Josie walks around like she bought herself some brand new clothes Singin' to herself, swingin' for the sidewalk Joes She got a cousin down in Reno, says the money's comin' fast So she's packin' it up, but her momma says it ain't gonna last Wait it out, wait it out So tired of hearin' that I gotta slow down I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how I just got to burnin' and I won't stop now VERSE II Well, the late-night, broken down army ain't got no wheels Billy's leanin' on an Eldorado just to see how it feels He's got his hands in his pockets janglin' a dollar in change Leavin' just as soon as he can get a job down in L.A. CHORUS BRIDGE Your love's not sure, your heart needs time Take all you want, but don't take mine SOLO: CHORUS Wait it out, wait it out So tired of hearin' that I gotta slow down I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how I just got to burnin' and I won't stop . . . Wait it out, wait it out So tired of hearin' that I gotta slow down I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how I just got to burnin' and I won't stop now (repeat and fade)
