The Steal Of The Night - George Strait

The band had just started when they walked in the door

He sat her at a table and strolled out on the floor

He grabbed the first sweet thang that gave him the eye

And left the door open for the steal of the night

Three dances later she was still in her chair

He was still on the dance floor like he didn’t care

So I eased on over, there was no ring in sight

And I found myself facing the steal of the night.

She was the steal of the night,

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight

I held her close and it felt so right

She was the steal of the night

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He left her lonely and the pickings were right

She was the steal of the night

We danced every slow one the band could play

Was it ever this easy for ole Jesse James

Had the gold in my hands and the banker was blind

Just inches away from the steal of the night

When the band stopped playing we walked to the car

As I closed the door he ran out of the bar

Saw him shaking his fist under the parking lot light

As I strolled away with the steal of the night

She was the steal of the night,

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight

I held her close and it felt so right

She was the steal of the night

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He left her lonely and the pickings were right

She was the steal of the night

She was the steal of the night,

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight

I held her close and it felt so right

She was the steal of the night

Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night

He left her lonely and the pickings were right

She was the steal of the night
