To say it won't work out right
Who you talkin' to
To say it won't work out right this time, baby
I've got a little story to tell
Some of it might ring a bell
It goes
Don't give up like you're supposed to do

Cruise, tonight, let's cruise
Past the harbour lights
Cruise, tonight, let's cruise
Until we're out of sight
The ones that you've known for so long,
Make you feel like you don't belong
But don't give you, like you're supposed to do
Like you're supposed to do

Listen very carefully
Don't think that you're of the rarest breed
Of ones who lead the lonely sheltered lives
The brothers may abandon you
Your sisters leave you standin'
Waiting in the wings until your time arrives
Don't give up like you're supposed to do

Who you talkin' to
To make it all work out right
Who you talkin' to
To make it all work out right tonight, until then
Everybody's playing along, nobody writes the song
Everybody's playing along, nobody writes the song
Everybody's playing along
