Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anymore
That's how you learn, you just get burned
We don't have to feel like dirt anymore
Though love's not earned, baby, it's our turn
[Verse 2]
We were always lookin' for true love
With our heads in the clouds
Just a little off course
But I left that motor runnin'
Now if you're feelin' down and out
[Verse 3]
Come on, baby, drive south
With the one you love
Come on, baby, drive south
[Verse 4]
I'm not talkin' 'bout retreatin', no sir
Gonna take our stand in this Chevy van
Windows open on the rest of the world
Holdin' hands all the way to Dixieland
[Verse 5]
We've been tryin' to turn our lives around
Since we were little kids, it's been wearin' us down
Don't turn away now, darlin'
Let's fire it up and wind it out
[Verse 6]
Come on, baby, drive south
With the one you love
Come on, baby, drive south
[Verse 7]
I heard your mama callin'
Think she was only stallin'
Don't know who she's talkin' to
Baby, me and you
We can go down with a smile on
Ain't gonna pack my nylons
Just leave these legs showin'
It gets hot down where we're goin'
[Verse 8]
We were always lookin' for true love
With our heads in the clouds
Just a little off course
But I left that motor runnin'
Now if you're feelin' down and out
[Verse 9]
Come on, baby, drive
Come on, baby, drive south
With the one you love
Come on, baby, drive south
With the one you love
Come on, baby, drive south
