Waylon Jennings - After The Ball Lyrics

Waylon Jennings Lyrics

"After The Ball"
(originally by Johnny Cash)

I hear people laughing on the corner by the square
The neon flickers on the wall, and I know that you're out there
I'm in your bed and listening for your footsteps down the hall
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

After the ball is over, after the ball
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

Loving you is sweet addiction, I need only you
Just as long as you come back, go do what you want to do
Give the world your laughter, girl, I'll have you after all
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

After the ball is over, after the ball
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

After the ball is over, after the ball
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

After the ball is over, after the ball
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you after the ball

After the ball is over, after the ball
