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 wanna be left alone

So baby, you can sleep while I drive



I'll pack my bags and load up my guitar

In my pocket I'll carry my harp

I've got some money I saved

Enough to get on the way

And baby, you can sleep while I drive



We'll go through to Tuscon 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

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
