Lyrics
Swinging
© 2007 Nicholaus Billings
(V1)
Its almost quitting time
And I know exactly where I’ll run.
Down to the local tavern,
Gonna find myself some fun.
(chorus)
Cause I’m going swinging,
All through the night
Yeah I’m going swinging,
Till I’m held tight.
(V2)
So I roll on in bout 8:15,
A pretty girl right there.
I walk on over, ask to dance,
And compliment her hair.
(chorus)
But she wasn’t swinging,
All through the night.
No she wasn’t swinging,
Or holding me tight.
(V3)
A swig of courage, my next shot,
I think I know her name.
Billy-Joe or Bobbie-Sue,
They all sound the same.
(chorus)
She ain’t want no swinging,
All through the night.
She ait’t want no swinging,
Or holding me tight.
(V4)
Here we go, my last chance,
Then her eyes meet mine.
Put out my hand and she grabbed on,
And we got lost in time.
(chorus)
As we started swinging,
All through the night.
We kept on swinging,
And holding on tight.
(Tag)
Oh we went swinging
Yeah we went swinging
Baby, we were swinging
Swinging all through the night
swinging all through the night
yeah, we were swinging all through the night
