Take me to the place where the white boys dance   Take me to the place where they run and play   My baby is gone, you might have a chance   Just take me to the place where the white boys dance      They hug in silence as the sun sets   On their empty street   Her suspicions, well they?re rising high   And the man who sweeps him off she doesn?t meet      She walks inside and pours a strong one   To put her mind at ease   It?s the calm before another storm   Her brain shifts from the whiskey to the keys      Take me to the place where the white boys dance   Take me to the place where they run and play   My baby is gone, you might have a chance   Just take me to the place where the white boys dance      Her heart is racing, she phones a friend and says   ?I?m in an awful place   That fool?s been messing round on me   I?ve seen it in his eyes and on his face"      Hold on a minute, you?re talking crazy   Don?t be that jealous, girl   Just tell Levon you need an hour or two   'Cause we?re gonna go and change somebody?s world      Take me to the place where the white boys dance   Take me to the place where they run and play   My baby is gone, you might have a chance   Just take me to the place where the white boys dance      It?s the calm before another storm   It?s the calm before another storm   Her brain shifts from the whiskey to the keys      Take me to the place where the white boys dance   Take me to the place where they run and play   My baby is gone, you might have a chance   Just take me to the place where the white boys dance
