There’s a red light shining on a stereo box
One light shining while the night time unlocks
Shining down on the night’s seams, striking up my dreams
Heatin’ up the sheets, sparkin’ up a scene
Light on target somewhere in here
Night time’s a quiet time, just heartbeats and tick tocks
Splashed with the crest and break of the radio waves
Rock and Roll music tellin’ me to stay up late
Forgetting all the days work, I got records to play
Putting down the needle, I’m just getting to the point
Getting to the point . . .
Backbeat counting double time guitar drawing lines
Bottom come over me and I’m turned on my head
Fleshing out a rhythm with our skin and our hands
Tappin’ out an eight beat, hittin’ four on my feet,
Feelin’ you on the heartbeat, we’re on the top of the world
We’re on top of the world . . .
Now isn’t it the time to unwind baby and rewind and retrace our steps
Over crossroads and railways tracks and hobos and their knapsacks
Cutting through the green, green grass, A Memphis sunshine on our backs
Turn down the light now, so I can see your soul
I can see your soul
There’s a red light shining on a stereo box
One light shining while the night time unlocks
Shining down on the night’s seams, striking up my dreams
Heatin’ up the sheets, sparkin’ up a scene
Light on target somewhere in here
