Hunt You Down - JT Hodges

I came up river on a gravel barge from New Orleans

She was standing on the cobblestones in a pair of cut-off jeans

I asked what she was doin' she said “Sugar I'm killin' time”

Then I handed her my wallet and said “Baby so am I”

She said “You might need these” and then handed me her shades

Took me to a barroom darker than the ace of spades

I asked “What's this we're drinkin' ” She said “Call it smokey Blues”

I couldn't tell you what it tasted like but I know I had a few

And we danced and we laughed never talked about tomorrow

We just lived a little in the here and now

With her hands in my hair like a million magic fingers

She said “Look me up when you get back to town”

“Look you up ” I said “Hell I'm gonna hunt you down ”

Na na-na-na na na nah na na na na nah na hunt you down

She asked where I was comin' from

I said “I'm just comin' round how 'bout you ”

Then she drove me to the highest hill in Germantown

“My daddy's money bought the mansion they threw in the plane for free”

She said “I can drop you off anywhere or you can stay with me”

And we danced and we laughed never talked about tomorrow

We just lived a little in the here and now

With her hands in my hair like a million magic fingers

She said “Look me up when you get back to town'

“Look you up ” I said “Hell I'm gonna hunt you down ”

Ooh ooh ooh

Last night I saw a falling star dive straight into the river

And I thought about that girl in Germantown

I've gotta hunt her down

We danced and we laughed never talked about tomorrow

We just lived a little in the here and now

With her hands in my hair like a million magic fingers

She said “Look me up when you get back to town”

“Look you up ” I said “Hell I'm gonna hunt you down ”

I'm gonna hunt you down

Oh oh oh

Na na-na-na na na nah na na na na nah na hunt you down
