Don't Wait Up Lyrics - Bible Belt - Diane Birch

I said to the river running through my heart 

You got a long way to go until the waters part 

Come the clouds rollin' in and all the people hide 

They say run, run baby to the sunny side 

I said to the preacher standing at my door 

Why you chasin' a rainbow when you got a star? 

He said you're gonna be sorry if you open that lid 

I said it's too late daddy I already did 

Oh, oh, don't wait up for me 

Oh, ooh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see 

No, no, no 

Don't wait up for me, don't wait up for me 

I looked at the clock and it was quarter to twelve 

I started counting the minutes to the freedom bell 

I said the midnight hour is gonna take me home 

And today's sorrow will be here no more 

I said 

Oh, oh, don't wait up for me 

Oh, ooh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see 

No, no, no 

Oh, no, oh, don't wait up for me 

Oh, ooh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see 

No, no, no 

Oh, oh, don't wait up for me 

Oh, ooh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see 

No, no, no 

Oh, oh, don't wait up for me 

Oh, ooh, 'cause you ain't gonna like what you see 

No, no, no 

Don't wait up for me 

Oh no, don't wait up for me 

Don't wait up for me 

Oh, don't wait up for me
