(Blame It) On the Pony Express Songtext
von Johnny Johnson & The Bandwagon

Went to bed as the sun rose
Woke up this morning in yesterday′s clothes
Up all night, sharing a secret
You're on a promise and I′m gonna keep it
Unplug the alarm or at least press reset
There's no way I'm getting up yet
Just another five, another five minutes
That train′s gone and we′re not in it
My heart can't take the strain
Give me thirty minutes and we′ll blame it on the
When we get there, no one will know
We didn't wash and slept in our clothes
I thought we both understood
A warm delay just feels too good
Up all night, sharing a secret
You′re on a promise and I'm gonna keep it
Just another five, another five minutes
That train′s gone and we're not in it


My heart can't take the strain
Give me thirty minutes and we′ll blame it on the
Think of all the times they kept you waiting
You could be in bed, it′s so frustrating
Just this once let them take the blame
Give me thirty minutes and we'll blame it on the
Stay with me, stay here with me
Stay with me, stay here with me
Go, go, don′t go, stay here with me
Stay right here with me
Half an hour's not hard to explain
Give me thirty minutes and we′ll blame it on the
Half an hour's not hard to explain
Give me thirty minutes and we′ll blame it on the
Half an hour's not hard to explain
Give me thirty minutes and we'll blame it on the
Outside, looks like rain
Come under the covers, we′ll blame it on the trains
