Jerry Leger - Wait a Little Longer Lyrics

Don't go breaking your poor young shoulders
You know I can wait a little longer
I could always wait for you
Everyday there's something honest
But sometimes it's lost upon us
Please don't make a promise
I'll wait for you

Through the night
I heard rustling
Was it you with your rope?
In the pines
I went tumbling
Between the cowards and the jokes

Steal your best friend's charms
Where have all the good rhymes gone
While fishing for a song
I'll wait for you
You're so kind and unforgiving
Drawing pictures in the smoke
Back to the grind and the shuffling
Our deck of who really knows

You make that dress look pretty
As you flow from the town to the city
Please don't take pity
I'll wait for you
