It's Late {it's late}
We gotta get on home
It's late {it's late}
We been gone too long
Too bad {too bad}
We shoulda checked our time
Can't phone {can't phone}
We done spent every dime
It's late {it's late}
We're `bout to run outta gas
It's late {it's late}
We gotta get home fast
Can't speed {can't speed}
We're in a slow down zone
Baby, look at that clock why can't it be wrong
If we coulda left home by a quarter to nine
Woulda had fun and plenty of time
We got started just a little bit late
Hope this won't be our last date
Look up {look up}
Is that the moon we see?
Can't be {can't be}
Looks like the sun to me
It's late {it's late}
I hate to face your dad
Too bad {too bad}
I know he's gonna be mad
It's late {it's late}
We gotta get on home
It's late {it's late}
We been gone too long
{Instrumental break over verse chords}
If we coulda left home by a quarter to nine
We woulda had fun and plenty of time
We got started just a little bit late {doo-wop}
Hope this won't be our last date
