It's Late Lyrics

It's late (it's late) 

We gotta get on home 

It's late (it's late) 

We've been gone too long 

Too bad (too bad) 

We shoulda checked our time 

Can't phone (can't phone) 

We done spent ev'ry dime 

It's late (it's late) 

We're 'bout to run outta gas 

It's late (it's late) 

We gotta get home fast 

Can't speed (can't speed) 

We're in a slow-down zone 

Baby, look at that clock, why can't it be wrong? 

If we coulda left home at a quarter to nine 

Woulda had fun and plenty of time 

We got started just a little bit late 

Hope this won't be our last date 

Look up (look up) 

Is that the moon we see? 

Can't be (can't be) 

Looks like the sun to me 

It's late (it's late) 

I hate to face your Dad 

Too bad (too bad) 

I know he's gonna be mad 

It's late (it's late) 

We gotta get on home 

It's late (it's late) 

We've been gone too long 

--instrumental break-- 

It's late (it's late) 

We're 'bout to run outta gas 

It's late (it's late) 

We gotta get home fast 

Can't speed (can't speed) 

We're in a slow-down zone 

Baby, look at that clock, why can't it be wrong? 

If we coulda left home at a quarter to nine 

Woulda had fun and plenty of time 

We got started just a little bit late 

Hope this won't be our last date 

Look up (look up) 

Is that the moon we see? 

Can't be (can't be) 

Looks like the sun to me 

It's late (it's late) 

I hate to face your Dad 

Too bad (too bad) 

I know he's gonna be mad 

It's late (it's late) 

We gotta get on home 

It's late (it's late) 

We've been gone too long 

(It's late)
