Song Lyrics

It was 29 years in dog years, since I seen my little lady
Y'see I needed some space and time to kill all my highway thrills
And now I'm back in her old mill town
I been dry and clean and I'm ready to try this love thing again
And I will  I'm not going in any direction,
But she laughed and said times have changed
There ain't no bed for you here...  

Hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
I don't need you to fight for me and I don't need you to cry
Just hit the bell with your elbow yes and come in with your hands up high

I told her I been through a lot out there
I lost my chukka playboy boots
At the river bottom inn
I lost my barracuda jacket in a bet gone wrong
And through it all I heard birds whistling your name
She laughed and said you can sneeze in the basket
But still ain't no bed for you here

Hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
I don't need you to fight for me and I don't need you to cry
Just hit the bell with your elbow and come in with your hands up high

And your pants down low, pants down low
And keep your boot laces, keep'em high and tight
Pants down low, With your pants down low
But you can't hide in me tonight
No you can't hide in me tonight

Did you say that you had no place to go
Or that you had no place to stay
Did you say that you had no place to go
Which is it boy, cause it's cold outside, you either go or you stay

and Hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
I don't need you to fight for me and I don't need you to cry
Just hit the bell with your elbow yes and come in with your hands up high

Pants down low
But you can't hide in me tonight
No you can't hide in me tonight
