Paradise From Nine To One - Sammy Kershaw

Screeching to a halt in front of your house

The front door opened and your momma peeked out

I saw your silhouette brushing your long hair

Any minute now you’d be slipping downstairs

We were rarin' to go and the night was young

It was paradise from nine to one

We had wild streaks and reckless hearts

We came alive when the town got dark

We did a lot of living and loving under the gun

Oh it was paradise from nine to one

Paradise from nine to one

We had the whole town bettin' on what we’d do They’d already seen how I looked at you

We’d hit the ground running for the county line

Cause the band was cranking up about that time

We never missed a beat of that rock 'n roll drum

It was paradise from nine to one

We had wild streaks and reckless hearts

We came alive when the town got dark

We did a lot of living and loving under the gun

Oh it was paradise from nine to one

Paradise from nine to one

We’d tear ourselves away 'round about midnight

Steal a few kisses in a patch of moonlight

I knew your daddy waited up till I got you home

But it was paradise from nine to one

We had wild streaks and reckless hearts

We came alive when the town got dark

We did a lot of living and loving under the gun

Oh it was paradise from nine to one

Paradise from nine to one

Paradise from nine to one

It was paradise from nine to one

It was paradise from nine to one…
