Private Conversation

[Verse 1]
And his hand, it fell behind her
As his arm, it reached around
Oh, and she looked at the window
And she watched the shade go down
It was a private conversation
No one heard her say
That man she left behind her
Was two thousand miles away

[Chorus]
Singing boy, pick up that fiddle
Ooh and play that steel guitar
Ooh and find yourself a lady
Ooh and dance right where you are
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

[Verse 2]
There was a lonely girl from nowhere
With a smile all sweet with pain
Oh, and she never stopped to wonder
Ooh, if she'd see him again
It was a private conversation
No one heard her say
That man that she was looking for
Was only twenty streets away

[Chorus]
Singing boy, pick up that fiddle
Ooh, and play that steel guitar
Ooh, and find yourself a lady
Ooh, and dance right where you are
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

[Verse 3]
And the band it just kept playing
Oh, as she came walking in
Oh, and he never stopped to wonder
Ooh, if he'd see her again
It was a private conversation
No one heard him say
That girl he left behind him
Was two thousand miles away

[Chorus]
He just sang, boy, pick up that fiddle
Ooh, and play that steel guitar
Ooh, and find yourself a lady
Ooh, and dance right where you are
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

[Verse 4]
And the moral of this story
Is I guess it's easier said than done
Ooh, look at what you've been through
And to see what you've become
Well, it's a private conversation
No one hears you say
Well, it's a private conversation
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

[Verse 5]
And his hand, it fell behind her
As his arm, it reached around
Oh, and she looked at the window
And she watched the shade go down
It was a private conversation
No one heard her say
It was a private conversation
No one heard her say
It was a private conversation
No one heard her say
It was a private conversation

[Outro]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
