If you're gonna get up
You might as well get up with me
If you're going downtown
I might as well be on your way

And I sit all night, I sit still all night
I won't tell one soul, I won't tell one soul

I just can't get it straight you see and, oh well
That distraction inside of me, oh well
I just can't get it straight you see and, oh well

If it's fine by you, I am fine by you
I won't tell one soul, I won't tell one soul

If you're going downtown
Take me with you, I don't care
If I'm gonna get up, I'll just admit it
I only get up for you
If I'm going to get up, I'll just admit it
I only get up for you

And I sit all night, I sit still all night
I won't tell one soul, I won't tell one soul

If you're going downtown, if you're going downtown
Yeah we can, yeah we can
If you're going downtown, if you're going downtown
Yeah we can, yeah we can

If you're going downtown, if you're going downtown
Yeah we can, yeah we can
If you're going downtown, if you're going downtown
Yeah we can, yeah we can

And I sit all night (if you're going downtown)
I sit still all night (if you're going downtown)
I won't tell one soul (if you're going downtown)
I won't tell one soul

    My Interpretation

    This song feels to me a lot like proposing a closeted relationship, saying effectively nobody needs to know, but I want you enough to be ok with that.
