On Suwdawn lyrics

Jimmy was waitin on Shelby Jean
In the parking lot at the Dairy Queen
He knew she s gonna be there soon
Then they ll blow this town
Like a cheap balloon

She came in cryin this morning at the store
Said, I swear Jimmy, I just can t take no more
So he quit his job and drew his pay
Now he s helpin Shelby make her getaway

Oh...sittin on go
Waitin on sundown
Waitin on sundown
No more beatin to be denied
No more bruises that makeup can t hide
All these years she s tried to love that man
But all he ever gave her
Was the back of his hand

Now, Jimmy is a young boy
Just out of his teens
So many things that he still hasn t seen
But he s old enough to know wrong from right
That s why he s helpin Shelby
Make her break tonight

And oh...sittin on go
Waitin on sundown
Waitin on sundown
Waitin on sundown
Drove all night drove all day
Jimmy listened to everything Shelby had to say
How she d suffered at her lover s hand
He said honey I wanna change all that if I can
They pulled over to take a little rest
Shelby put her head down on Jimmy s chest
And she could hear the beatin of his heart
And it sounded like the rhythm of a brand new start

And oh she s gonna let him know
She s waitin on sundown
She s just waitin on sundown
Yeah they re waitin on sundown
Waitin on sundown
They re waitin on sundown
