[Verse 1]
Do you hear that whistle wail?
I think the end is coming in
But I'm a whole lot worse for wear
But I'm determined to slip this skin
And I know you're dying for a good time
Dying to breathe again
Oh my, my, Virginia

[Chorus]
We could run all night
And dance upon the architecture
Come and take my hand
I'll give the very best I can
Boy, I still wanna be your man
I'm still these nervous feet
And heart of stone
Forget this dead man's town
I'll take you home

[Verse 2]
Do you hear me late at night?
Always picking at the pieces
Sometimes nothing comes out right
And nothing is relieving
But every soul man's song
Is a night I'd like to spend with you
Just twisting the night away
[Verse 3]
But it's past a quarter to three
And it's past the midnight hour
Mustang Sally's left the building
And we're so much worse without her
If I could put down this ol' hammer
I'd take you somewhere new
Oh my, my, Virginia

[Chorus]
We could run all night
And dance upon the architecture
Come and take my hand
I'll give the very best I can
Boy, I still wanna be your man
I'm still these nervous feet
And heart of stone
Forget this dead man's town
I'll take you home

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh my my, Virginia
We could run all night
And dance upon the architecture
Come and take my hand
I'll give the very best I can
[Chorus]
And we could run all night
And dance upon the architecture
Come and take my hand
I'll give the very best I can
Boy, I still wanna be your man
I'm still these nervous feet
And heart of stone
Forget this dead man's town
I'll take you home

[Outro]
I'll take you home
I'll take you home
