lyrics

Don’t wait around for me, baby/I’m holding onto you and you to me tonight/But when we’re through, bid me adieu and don’t think it means, “’Til next time”/Step one, now, to the left and now another to the right/Light on your feet, babe/And you’re mighty sweet, babe//

But don’t you go wishing we were something/I’m sure of one thing—that I ain’t sure of nothin’/And if I was, well, then maybe I could love you/I think you’re fine, but I’m a movin’ all the time/Ants in my dress, babe/I’m a live-long mess, babe//

I never did need no one but little Katie/She’s a funny duck and I’m a little crazy/We give ‘em stuff to talk about over their morning tea/What is it to us but free publicity?/ “Saturday only! It’s Antigone!”//

Katie and me, we are dreamers/Hitch a wagon to the sun and make a run for it/There’s a stage for the best of ‘em and we belong on it/In a city far away and all the folks back home will say/ “We knew them when” and/ “Ain’t they just something?”//

Don’t wait around for me, baby/The moon shines like a liberty dime/It’s a night made for the dreamers/I’m a creature come to life, flitting and flying like it was easy/Tonight in Michigan, tomorrow Tulita or Paris/Just try and catch me/I’m halfway to New York City//

Don’t wait around for me, baby/Don’t wait around/Don’t wait around for me, baby//

Rebekah Rolland is a singer, multi-instrumentalist, and songwriter based in Tucson. Characteristic of some of the most forceful and compelling voices in folk music, Rolland’s writing succeeds in building worlds of dust and clay, worn pages and weathered pearls, highways and high rises, the faces and hands, the trials and triumphs that make up the stories of the past and the present. ... more
