Beneath the dance hall lights

You see my girl so sound

Lights up the ground

If you give up New York

I'll give you Tennessee

The only place to be

The cowboy's burning eyes

Don't like the sight of me

Just straight enough to breathe

I like your point of view

So don't shy away

Ride out the wave

Ride out the wave

You had me holding on

Another time and place

Ride out the wave

Bury yourself away

The one and only face

Ride out the wave

Ride out the wave
