  Nashville Skyline recording session 4, Nashville TN - 17.feb.1969, take 5, album version  

Throw my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don't need them anymore
'Cause tonight i'll be staying here with you.

I should have left this town this morning
But it was more than i could do
For your love comes on strong
An' i've waited all day long
For tonight i'll be staying here with you.

Is it really any wonder
The love that a stranger might receive
You cast your spell an' i went under
I find it so difficult to leave.

I can hear that whistle blowin'
I can see that station master too
If there's a poor boy on the street
Then let him have my seat
'Cause tonight i'll be stayin' here with you.

Throw my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don't need them anymore
'Cause tonight i'll be staying here with you.

Throw my ticket in the wind
Throw my [troubles/mattress] out there too
Draw my letters in the sand
'Cause you got to understand
That tonight I'll be stayin' here with you.

I could have left this town by noon
By tonight I'd been to someplace new
But i's feeling a little bit scattered
An' your love was all that mattered
So tonight I'll be stayin' here with you 
Get ready, 
'Cause tonight I'll be stayin' here with you.

Is it really any wonder 
The changes we put on each other's head
You came down on me like rolling thunder
I left my dreams on the river bed.

I can hear that lonesome whistle blowin'
I hear them semis rollin' too
If there's a driver on the road
Got to let him have my load
'Cause tonight I'll be stayin' here with you.

I can hear that lonesome whistle blowin'
I hear them semis rollin' too
If there's a driver on this road
Then let him have my load
'Cause tonight i'll be stayin' here with you
'Cause tonight i'll be stayin' here with you.
