Lights all around I'm going downtown Congress Avenue Bridge It's taking me home It's 2 AM My girlfriend's sleeping again This mellow D Is taking me home Open up your wicker basket Shoulder satchel, name your casket Find a spot; take the ones you need Mold 'em gently far and familiar Know the meaning, you can understand Which way the fates will go The glitter and the gaudy show You'll never have to feel alone So find your way and find your way back home My kitten's black He knows where life's at He takes his time, takes it slow Takes it slow
