Lyrics: Gillian Welch. I Don't Want To Go Downtown.

I don't want to go downtown
I ain't got no ribbons for my hair
That band's too loud
And I always see you there

I can get a country station
They always play a few I like
I can dance around
But don't want to go downtown tonight

Used to be I would wait for Friday
And some folks wait for Christmas Eve
Now I stay at home
Since you made a fool of me

Might some folks seen it comin'
I guess they kept their mouths shut tight
They're laughing now
But don't want to go downtown tonight

I don't want to go downtown
I got no ribbons for my hair
That band's too loud
And I always see you there

I can get a country station
They always play a few I like
I can dance around
I don't have to go downtown
I don't have to go downtown
I don't have to go downtown
