AMERICAN AQUARIUM
"Down Under"
(B.J. Barham)

It's Friday night and I'm sittin' here
Info-mercial and a lukewarm beer
Through the window the red taillights
Rage a war on the October sky

[Chorus:]
And I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't lookin' back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here

It's 3 A.M. and I grab my keys
I drive around while my sinner sleeps
Yellow lines perforate my mind
Seems like all I'm doin' is wastin' time

[Chorus:]
Well I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't lookin' back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here

Her bags are packed and her luggage checked
And I'm burnin' out like her cigarette
She says she'll call, she says she''ll write
But all that means is I'm alone again tonight

[Chorus:]
And I know she's gone
Yeah I know she ain't lookin' back
Yes I know that she loves me
And I'd do anything, oh Lord, to keep her here
I'll keep her here, keep her here
I'll keep her here, I'll keep her here
Keep her here, I'll keep her here
