"Late Movie" lyrics - TEX WILLIAMS

They're havin' a party at Jimmy's Jane and the gang will be there
I wanna go more than they know but I can't let her know that I care
If I see her I'd might go to pieces might even break down and cry
So when they ask me to go to their party well I just tell 'em my favorite lie

[Chorus:]
Think I'll stay home and watch the late movie
My favorite actor is on
And I've waited so long for this movie
If you don't mind I think I'll stay home

I know every one will be dancin' yet laughin' havin' good time
Now how can I go there and act like I don't care when I'm goin' out of my mind
For I'm no good at hidin' my feelings one look at me and they'd know
Just like before I still love her so I guess I'd better not go

[Chorus]
