Never Make Your Move Too Soon Songtext
von Bonnie Raitt feat. Ruth Brown, Charles Brown & Kim Wilson

Three days of snow in a burnin′ hell
Bet you were wonderin' where I am
Rang that number all night long
Got no comfort on the telephone
Went out and caught me a midnight flight
Thought a little lovin′ made it all alright

But the landlord said you moved away
You left me all of your bills to pay
Look out baby
I think you might've made your move too soon

He left me with a cheap old car
Livin' in Vegas ain′t too hard
I ran it up to about 15 grand
Counted it out and held it in my hand
That kinda word will get around
I met the law and they called your bond


I hear ya knockin′ baby at my door
But you don't live hear no more
Oh no I think he made his move too soon

I′ve been from Spain to Tokyo
From Africa to Ohio
I never try to make the news
I'm just some man who sang those low down blues
I take my lovin′ everywhere
And I come back to know you still care

One lover here, one love behind
One in my arms, one on my mind
One thing baby
I never make my move too soon

Baby, never make a move too soon
Oh your the devil in this, baby
We never make a move too soon
Too soon
