FIVE MORE MINUTES  words & music by Lenny Solomon

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
