Lyrics
I was as wild as the wind
I never thought she'd go in
For going out with a guy like me
But that night we were parked off some road in the dark
'neath a big old maple tree
Then a badge shined in his flashlight
And asked what we were doing at night
I said figure it for yourself
One and one makes two
So think it over a second
And it'll come to you
It's what the night's about
So mister figure it out
Figure it out for yourself
Well I was barely nineteen
That cop took my Jim Beam
And drove us to that girl's house
She couldn't help but blush
At sin's sweet taste and touch
And the buttons gone from her blouse
When her daddy asked that cop
What happened to his daughter's top
He said figure it out for yourself
One and one makes two
So think it over a second
And it'll come to you
It's what the night's about
So mister figure it out
Figure it out for yourself
She was seven months along
I couldn't do her wrong
Plus her daddy threatened my life
When that preacher said to me
Do you take this gal to be your lawfully wedded wife
With a gun pointed at my head
I looked at her belly and said
Figure it out for yourself
One and one makes three
So think it over a second
And tell me what you see
It's what's the night's about
So mister figure it out
Figure it out for yourself
Figure it out for yourself
Figure it out for yourself
Figure it out for yourself
