[00:02.73]By God won't you please just cut out the lights
[00:14.92]Suzanne won't you help me to draw the line
[00:20.64]Between floozy women and having cigarettes with wine
[00:27.79]There seems to be no room here for my laughter
[00:33.37]But you never seemed to mind all those nights before
[00:41.12]By God won't you please just cut out the lights
[00:49.82]But whatever you do
[00:55.66]Won't you leave my candle burning
[01:03.58]Working for nickel down at the armory
[01:09.17]Trying to support my dime life style
[01:16.25]The bossman telling me I better get it done
[01:21.74]What a way to treat the boy who's your only son
[01:29.47]By God won't you please just cut out the lights
[01:38.18]But whatever you do
[01:43.89]Won't you leave my candle burning
[01:56.00]
[02:14.55]Count your money out on your own time
[02:20.13]You stole somebody's heart my dear but it sure as hell wasn't mine
[02:27.34]Pick your rags up off my bedroom floor
[02:32.74]I done told you one time you're not welcome here no more
[02:40.45]By God won't you please just cut out the lights
[02:49.50]But whatever you do
[02:55.34]Won't you leave my candle burning
[03:04.83]By God won't you please just cut out the lights
