Well, all the parties on the streets are talking
Store front mannequins sleeping in the lights
We used to smoke while we were jay-walking
Like it was your birthday every other Saturday night
Knew the band so we never payed our cover
Wrote our names on the bathroom tiles
We never dressed to impress all the others
They would let us in on our laid back kind of style
But boy you know it's been a while

I don't know why you don't take me downtown
Like you got anywhere better to be
You talk it up and give me the go round, round
Like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
When I should be counting on you at my door
Did you forget about how we ran around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
Oh anymore

I got some platforms sitting in the corner
They wanna stroll on a city sidewalk
I got a dress that'll show a little uh uh
But you ain't getting uh uh
If you don't come pick me up (damn)
Show me off (wow)
You might be tired but I'm not!

And I don't know why you don't take me downtown
Like you got anywhere better to be
You talk it up and give me the go round, round
Like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
When I should be counting on you at my door
Did you forget about how we ran around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore

I don't know why you don't take me downtown
Like you got anywhere better to be
You talk it up and give me the go round, round
Like a good time tease
I'm only counting on your cancellation
When I should be counting on you at my door
Did you forget about how we ran around
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore

Oh anymore
Yeah I don't know why you don't take me downtown
I don't know why you don't take me downtown anymore
I just don't get it
