  • I was running outta time
    Inspiration hard to find
    Across the Rio Grande
    Take me to your city lights
    Out by the riverside
    I know you understand

    Play me something downtempo
    Low-key and rock-steady
    Body hittin' like Kimbo
    Fallin' for you like confetti
    More whiskey and ginger
    Love, I'm just a beginner
    What if I stayed in Laredo
    Just one more night?
    Just one more night

    I know a girl with a diamond crown
    Grew up in a border town
    Took me to an empty dive
    Such a pretty silhouette
    Showed me how to two-step
    She brings me back to life

    Play me something downtempo
    Low-key and rock-steady
    Body hittin' like Kimbo
    Fallin' for you like confetti
    More whiskey and ginger
    Love, I'm just a beginner
    What if I stayed in Laredo
    Just one more night?
    Just one more night

    Ohh
    Ooh
    Na, na, na, na
    Oh, yeah, yeah

    Play me something downtempo
    Low-key and rock-steady
    Body hittin' like Kimbo
    Fallin' for you like confetti (fallin' for you)
    More whiskey and ginger (fallin')
    Love, I'm just a beginner
    What if I stayed in Laredo
    Just one more night?
    Just one more night

    Play me something downtempo
    Low-key and rock-steady Writer/s: Daniel Tashian, Ian Fitchuk, Todd Michael Bridges
