When I feel my phone buzzing, ain't even gotta look down
I know it's you that's calling, a couple drinks in by now
So I say hello, you say, hey, babe
Say you're 'bout to catch a cab over to my place
See you in five, but, baby, this time

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown

Ain't gonna lie, if you knock on my door
I'm gonna let you walk in
Let you leave drunk lipstick marks like tattoos on my skin
But you know in the morning
We're gonna regret everything we did
So why even start what ain't good for our hearts

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown

Keep sipping your drink, keep spinning the room
Keep chasing the night like you always do
Keep letting the good times play
Don't let me get in your way

Stay downtown
Keep moving your heels on the floor
Let the bartender pour you up another round
Tip the cover band, find another hand
To dance and call him your rebound
Another late night love, another last call crush
With the neon shining down
Girl, this time around, stay downtown
Stay downtown
Yeah, this time around, baby, stay downtown
