  • People stay just a little bit longer
    We want to play, just a little bit longer

    Now the promoter don't mind
    And the union don't mind
    If we take a little time
    And we leave it all behind and sing
    One more song

    Oh, won't you stay
    Just a little bit longer
    Please, please, please, say you will
    Say you will

    Oh, won't you stay
    Just a little bit longer
    Oh, please, please, please stay
    Just a little bit more

    I bet promoters don't mind
    And the roadies don't mind
    If we take a little time
    And we leave this all behind
