Lyrics Wait It Out - Tift Merritt

Well, Josie walks around
Like she′s bought herself some brand new clothes
Singing to herself
Swinging for the sidewalk Jones

She's got a cousin down in Reno
Says, "The money is coming fast"
So she′s packing it up
But her Mama says, "It ain't gonna last"

Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won′t stop now

Well, the late night
Broken down army ain′t got no wheels
He was leaning on an El Dorado
Just to see how it feels

He's got his hands in his pockets
Janglin′ a dollar in change
Leaving just as soon as
He can get a job down in L.A.

Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won′t stop now

Your love's not sure, your heart needs time
Take all you want, but don′t take mine

Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain't gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won't stop

Wait it out, wait it out
So tired of hearing that I got to slow it down
I ain′t gonna listen to them tell me how
I just got to burning and I won′t stop now
