Johnny Horton

Let's Take the Long Way Home

LET'S TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME

WRITER AUTRY INMAN

Let's take the long way home tonight

Maybe I can hold you tight

That old moon may be shinin' bright

Let's take the long way home tonight

Cos it ain't no fun to go straight home and then

Just kiss goodnight and you have to go in

Let's take the long way home from the dance

Maybe we will find romance

We'll cuddle up if we get the chance

Let's take the long way home tonight

Let's take the long way home and have fun

You can help me spend all my mon'

Tell your mom you won't be home till one

Let's take the long way home tonight

Cos it ain't no fun to go straight home and then

Just kiss goodnight and you have to go in

Let's take the long way home through the park

We'll be alone in the dark

It may be there that I'll win your heart

Let's take the long way home tonight
