She's been staring out the window for nights in a row Like a caged up tiger she's a-pacing the floor For the night is young and the moon is full And she just can't sense when she feels alone She's got a restless spirit that she can't control And when she gets like this I gotta let her go She hears a call from all over the world Everyone wants in a while She lets down her hair, she's gotta get somewhere She can turn it loose and howl I know what's in store, Katie bar the door When she winks at me and smiles She's any good stomping, honky-tonking, love-making state of mind So excuse me y'all, I gotta answer the call of a while If there's ever been a lady with a baby Just more of a woman at times like this Now don't you worry about baby skipping out of line Yes she drives me crazy but it suits me fine Oh she's a hard to handle so I hold on tight And Lord knows I got my hands full tonight She hears a call from all over the world Everyone wants in a while She lets down her hair, she's gotta get somewhere She can turn it loose and howl I know what's in store, Katie bar the door When she winks at me and smiles She's any good stomping, honky-tonking, love-making state of mind So excuse me y'all, I gotta answer the call of a while She hears a call from all over the world Everyone wants in a while She lets down her hair, she's gotta get somewhere She can turn it loose and howl I know what's in store, Katie bar the door When she winks at me and smiles She's any good stomping, honky-tonking, love-making state of mind So excuse me y'all, I gotta answer the call of a while I said pardon me y'all, I gotta answer the call of a while *
