Stay a Little Longer

Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
Don't see why ya don't stay a little longer

Really oughta see my blue-eyed Sally
Lives way down on Shinbone Alley
The number on the gate and the number on the door
And the next house over is the grocery store

Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
Don't see why ya don't stay a little longer

Well, now you can't go home if you're goin' by the mill
'Cause the bridge washed out at the bottom of the hill
The big creek's up and the big creek's level
And I plow my corn with a doubled shovel

Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
Don't see why ya don't stay a little longer

Well, sittin' in the window singin' to my love
When a slop bucket fell from the window up above
A mule and grasshopper eatin' ice cream
The mule got sick and they laid him on his bin

Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
Don't see why ya don't stay a little longer
