Time That It Would Take

Forget about my crazy days

Forget about my checkered past

What's all this interrogatin'?

Baby, forget about that

You don't want to ask no questions

You don't know the answers to

You might wish that I was lying

Once you heard the brutal truth

I can think a thousand things I'd rather do with you

In the time that it would take me to explain the way I am

Honey I could be well on my way to being your new man

We could waste the day away digging up my buried bones

Or you could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize and justify my way right in your door

But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been

Honey I could take you places you ain't never been before

Yeah come on girl now don't you judge me

Come on girl cut me some slack

Once I get you where I'm going baby you'll come on back

You and me are gas and matches

You and me could take this town

Light it up and get her smokin'

You and me could burn it down

Or you could get all hung up on

How much I've been around

In the time that it would take me to explain the way I am

Honey I could be well on my way to being your new man

We could waste the day away digging up my buried bones

Or you could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize and justify my way right in your door

But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been

Honey I could take you places you ain't never been before

Yeah In the time that it would take me to explain the way I am

I could be well on my way to being your new man

We could waste the day away digging up my buried bones

Or you could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize and justify my way right in your door

But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been

Honey I could take you places you ain't never been before
