DO YOU WANT TO STAY THE NIGHT AND PLAY

I hope you like this. The rhyme scheme is based on a old rock classic. Visit my website if you like these lyrics below. I'm new to taxi and look forward to meeting fellow members. Jim

DO YOU WANT TO STAY THE NIGHT AND PLAY

(Well), I tuned up my guitar, then drove down to the bar (picked-up) (before I drove) (and)
Another Friday night, Oh…and the crowed was just right (feelin' right)
I got an ice cold beer, while the band set up our gear
Then I saw her arrive, as the music came alive

She came right up to the stage, looking younger than her age
As she drank down a few, I sang a song maybe two
Then she whispered...please, come play a song with me

Do you wanna stay the night and play
We won't let love get in our way
Do you wanna to stay the night and play
Till the morning light, takes the moon away (fades) (steals)

So, we went back to her room
Which smelled of sweet perfume
We made music all night long
I wrote lyrics to her song

She showed how good it can be
When we sing in harmony
We rocked in rhythm and rhyme (locked)
In perfect tempo the whole time

She said, I need your rhymes, you need my melody
You've got what I'm miss'en, stay here next to me
Please keep on sing'en, and I'll sing along (sing one more song)
I like how we sing, this just can't be wrong

Do you wanna stay the night and play
We won't let love get in our way
Do you wanna to stay the night and play
Till the morning light, takes the moon away

We sang songs, all through the night
All through the night, we sang songs

We've been together a while
Developed our own style
Our music never gets old
At least, that's what I'm told

Well, she now...plays and sings in the band
We write hits, you know first-hand
But when we go home and we're all alone
We make songs that are just our own

Do you wanna stay the night and play
We won't let love get in our way
Do you wanna to stay the night and play
Till the morning light, takes the moon away

Do you wanna stay the night and play
We won't let love get in our way
Do you wanna to stay the night and play
Till the morning light, takes the moon away

We sing songs, all through the night
All through the night, we sing songs

The third line in the chorus should be
Do you wanna stay the night and play....not...Do you wanna "to" stay the night and play. Sorry about that! Jim
