JT Hodges - Hunt You Down

I came up river on the gravel barge from new Orleans
She was standing on the cobblestones
In a pair of cut off jeans
I asked what she was doing
She said "sugar I'm killin' time"
Then I handed her my wallet and said "baby so am I"

She said "you might need these"
And then handed me her shades.
Took me to a ballroom darker than the ace of spades
I asked "what's this we're drinking?"
She said "call it smokey blues"
Couldn't tell you what it tasted like but I know I had a few.

And we danced
And we laughed
Never talked about tomorrow
We just lived a little in the here and now.
With her hands in my hair
Like a million magic fingers
She said "look me up when you get back to town"
"Look you up?"I said
"Hell I'm gonna hunt you down"

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na hunt you down

She asked where I was coming from
I said "I'm just coming round. How bout you?"
And she drove me to the highest hill in German town.
Daddy's money bought the mansion.
They flew in the plain for free.
She said "I can drop you off anywhere or you can stay with me"

And we danced
And we laughed
Never talked about tomorrow
We just lived a little in the here and now.
With her hands in my hair
Like a million magic fingers
She said "look me up when you get back to town"
"Look you up?" I said
"Hell I'm gonna hunt you down"

Last night I saw a falling star dive straight into the river
And I thought about that girl in German town
I gotta hunt her down

And we danced
And we laughed
Never talked about tomorrow
We just lived a little in the here and now.
With her hands in my hair
Like a million magic fingers
She said "look me up when you get back to town"
"Look you up?" I said
"Hell I'm gonna hunt you down"

I'm gonna hunt you down

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Hunt you down
