Never Make Your Move Too Soon (Live)

Three days of snow

Back in Birmingham

Thought you were wondering where I am

Rang our number

All night long

Got no comfort on the telephone

Ran out, got me a midnight flight

Thought a little love might make everything alright

Landlord told me that you moved away

Left me all your bills to pay

Look out, baby

You might've made your move too soon

You left me with just a Keno card

I found out life in Vegas sure ain't hard

I ran it up to about fifty grand

Cashed it in and held it in my hand

That kinda word sure can get around

Make a lost lover

Say here I am, baby

I'm found

I heard you knockin' last night up on my door

I changed my lock

You don't live here no more

Too bad

I think you made your move too soon

Been to Spain

Tokyo

Been to Africa

Ohio

Well, I don't try to get in the news

I am just a woman singing the blues

Well, take my lovin' anywhere

I come back next year, and find out they still care

I got one love ahead

One love behind

One in my arms and one always on my mind

Too bad

Think you made your move too soon

Yeah, yeah, yeah

The reason why I say I think you made your move too soon

Is because the last time I was packing my bags to go out on the road

I noticed that you were acting kinda strange

I noticed that you were acting kinda funny

You helped me pack my bags

And you went to the telephone and made my reservation

You put roamin' on my mind

Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey

Yeah, baby

That's why I think you made your move too soon

I grew up in a time when they said the show must go on, no matter what

So being the trooper that I am

I went on to my gig

Got 'em band standing out

Sang the blues all night long

I sang

People

Somebody done me wrong songs

All night long

Yeah

That's why I think you made your move too soon

I've been to Spain

I've been to Tokyo

Africa to Ohio

I've never tried to get in the news

I am just a woman that you gave the blues to

Take my lovin' anywhere

I come back next year, and find out they still care

One love ahead

One love behind

One in my arms and one always on my mind

Too bad

I think you made your move too soon

Yeah, baby

Think you made your move too soon

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Uh huh

Think you made your move too soon

Baby, baby, baby

I think you made your move too soon, yeah
