Come on baby let's get out of this town
|
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
|
There's a chill in my bones
|
I don't want to be left alone
|
So baby you can sleep while I drive
|
I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar
|
In my pocket I'll carry my harp
|
I got some money I saved
|
Enough to get underway
|
And baby you can sleep while I drive
|
|
We'll go thorough Tucson up to Santa Fe
|
And Barbara in Nashville says we're welcome to stay
|
I'll buy you glasses in Texas a hat from New Orleans
|
And in the morning you can tell me your dreams
|
|
You know I've seen it before
|
This mist that covers your eyes
|
You've been looking for something
|
That's not in your life
|
My intentions are true
|
Won't you take me with you
|
And baby you can sleep while I drive
|
|
Oh is it other arms you want to
|
Hold you the stranger
|
The lover you're free
|
Can't you get that with me
|
|
Come on baby let's get out of this town
|
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
|
If you won't take me with you
|
I'll go before night is through
|
And baby you can sleep while I drive
|

You Can Sleep While I Drive
