It was a summer night 1961
My boy's with me and my hair's undone
My red dress flowing like the American flag
My daddy's gone
My mom's uptight
But I love this boy I met that night
But mommy said I'd never see him again
Back of this bike with nowhere to go
The Stones are playing on the radio
I know I'll never leave my baby again
Living on the edge, on the edge of life
I hope I can make this boy my wife
But I know I'll never see my baby again
His boys are made of leather and dream
They ride too nice but their eyes are mean
They're always under watch of the big man
My boy said the same feels
My life's too rough, I'm playing to lose
He grabs my purse and said "don't care whats our plan"
Back of this bike with nowhere to go
The Stones are playing on the radio
I know I'll never leave my baby again
Living on the edge, on the edge of life
I hope I can make this boy my wife
But I know I'll never see my baby again
It was a summer night 1961
My boys with me and my hairs undone
My red dress flowing like the American flag
Back of this bike with nowhere to go
The Stones are playing on the radio
I know I'll never leave my baby again
Living on the edge, on the edge of life
I hope I can make this boy my wife
But I know I'll never see my baby again
That Night
