Never Make A Move Too Soon

Three days of snow in Birmingham

Thought you would wonder where I am

Rang our number all night long

Again no comfort on the telephone

Ran out and caught a midnight flight

Thought a little love would make everything all right

The landlord said you moved away

And left me all of your bills to pay

Look out baby, you might have made your move too soon

You left me with a Keno card

This life in Vegas sure ain't hard

I ran it up to about fifty grand

Cashed it in and held it in my hand

That kind of word can get around

And make a lost love come up found

I hear you knocking at my door

But you ain't living, baby, here, no more

It's too bad, baby

I think you made your move too soon

I've been from Spain to Tokyo

From Africa to Ohio

I never tried to make the news

I'm just a man who sing the blues

I take my lovin' everywhere

When I come back, they still care

One love ahead, one love behind

One in my arms, one on my mind

It's one thing baby

I never make my move too soon

Come on, baby

I've been from Spain to Tokyo

From Africa on up to Ohio

I never try to make the news

I'm just a man who sing the blues

I take my lovin' everywhere

I come back and they still care

One love ahead, one love behind

One in my arms, one on my mind

It's one thing, people, I never made my move too soon

Do it, do it, oh, uh-huh, uh-huh

Do it, do it, uh, do it, uh-huh

Do it, do it

Do it, do it, do it

Do it, do it, yeah

Oh, hey, yeah

Never make your move too soon

Do it, do it, yeah

Never make your move too soon

Yeah

Uh-huh, do it, do it, do it, do it
