Lock All The Doors Lyrics - Blackie & The Rodeo Kings

(Linden/Angelo) 

There's a long list of whys 

You're not here tonight 

It's dark outside 

You couldn't find a ride 

Things were loose 

Time got tight 

Must've been an oversight 

You'll write me of where you might be 

Now the candle's burned out and the wine's all gone 

And the dogs outside are gonna howl 'til dawn 

I'm gonna lock all the doors 

I'm gonna bolt all the windows 

I'm gonna turn off that lonesome song 

I'm gonna wipe out your words 

I'm gonna tear up your picture 

I'm gonna pray that it won't be long 

Until your memory's gone 

Out of touch out of time 

Spend a quarter drop a dime to find out 

What loneliness is about 

Tell the truth 

Make it good 

And you'll hear it in the neighbourhood 

To haunt you 

Come to taunt you 

But you don't have to waste another word 

'Cause I've got everything a fool deserves
