| Screeching to a halt in front of your house
|
| The front door opened and your momma peeked out
|
| I saw your silhouette brushing your long hair
|
| Any minute now you’d be slipping downstairs
|
| We were rarin' to go and the night was young
|
| It was paradise from nine to one
|
| We had wild streaks and reckless hearts
|
| We came alive when the town got dark
|
| We did a lot of living and loving under the gun
|
| Oh it was paradise from nine to one
|
| Paradise from nine to one
|
| We had the whole town bettin' on what we’d do They’d already seen how I looked at you
|
| We’d hit the ground running for the county line
|
| Cause the band was cranking up about that time
|
| We never missed a beat of that rock 'n roll drum
|
| It was paradise from nine to one
|
| We had wild streaks and reckless hearts
|
| We came alive when the town got dark
|
| We did a lot of living and loving under the gun
|
| Oh it was paradise from nine to one
|
| Paradise from nine to one
|
| We’d tear ourselves away 'round about midnight
|
| Steal a few kisses in a patch of moonlight
|
| I knew your daddy waited up till I got you home
|
| But it was paradise from nine to one
|
| We had wild streaks and reckless hearts
|
| We came alive when the town got dark
|
| We did a lot of living and loving under the gun
|
| Oh it was paradise from nine to one
|
| Paradise from nine to one
|
| Paradise from nine to one
|
| It was paradise from nine to one
|
| It was paradise from nine to one… |
