Closin’ Time At Home

[Verse 1]
Budweiser clock says it's almost twelve
I tipped the bartender, he rang that old bell
San Bernardino nights are great but they sure don't feel like home
Right now in Tulsa they've turned up the lights
The band has stopped playing', they've called it a night
She's makin' her way to the front door I know
She won't be leaving alone

[Verse 2]
If it's midnight in California, must be closing time in Oklahoma
I know that she's already danced another night away
And these west coast nights sure seem colder
Knowing somebody else's arms will hold her
Midnight in California means it's closing time at home

[Bridge]
I thought this distance between us might help me forget
But I've been here two weeks and it ain't happened yet
A change of scenery hasn't done a thing to change her mind

[Verse 3]
Oh, these west coast nights sure seem colder
Knowing somebody else's arms will hold her
Midnight in California means it's closing time at home
Yeah, midnight in California means it's closing time at home
