Cheatham Street Warehouse

[Verse 1]

Waking up late in the afternoon

Old piano playing just out of tune

Buzz of the heat through the telephone line

Some kind of song 'bout a bottle of wine

And I knew it was you by the sound of your feet

Pushing the pedals and keeping the beat

We're a million miles away from those days now

[Chorus]

You can't get away from me

You can't get me wrong

I know how to keep you here

Where you know you belong

In a song

[Verse 2]

A Cheatham Street Warehouse honky tonk song

The kind Billy Joe just can't get wrong

I'm gonna carve my name in the bar

Hope that you can hear it wherever you are

And wherever you are, I'll be hoping you know

Wherever I am, I'm missing you so

No longer a million miles away from anything

[Chorus]

You can't get away from me

You can't get me wrong

I know how to keep you here

Where you know you belong

In a song

[Verse 3]

Working on the last few lines last night

Trying to find a way to make it end alright

Telephone rang, it was you

You asked if I was working on anything new

I didn't have the heart to tell you about

The one thing I'm finishing up right now

No longer a million miles away from anything

[Chorus]

You can't get away from me

You can't get me wrong

I know how to keep you here

Where you know you belong

In a song
