Lyrics
Give me five more minutes, five more minutes more
Five more minutes, before you close the door
Five more minutes, you just wait and see
Five more minutes, you can count on me
I want to roll away
From the light of the judgment day
I want to rock all night
Not think what's wrong or right
Give me five more minutes, five more minutes more
Five more minutes, before you close the door
Five more minutes, won't play you for the fool
In five more minutes, I'll live by your every rule
If every, grain of sand
Is the measure, of a man
Must just be, my dumb luck
You came to clean me up
(bridge)
Five o'clock in the morning
Can't feel the sky or the ground
Eyes are glazed in a drunken haze
Hear nothing 'cept for the sound
Of angels flapping right over me
Devil's down in a hole
They're carrying on for the life of me
Who has the better claim to my soul
Give me five more minutes, five more minutes more
Five more minutes, before you close the door
Five more minutes, come let's make a deal
Five more minutes, you'll see that I'm for real
