lyrics
Packed three years in just three days
and headed to Tennessee
Just my baby and me
my baby and me
Took the highway through the night
and made it by daylight
Just my baby and me
my baby and me
How could I ever let her go
When I love her so
Don't you think in this light she's a lot like me
One day of rest with her bare chest
our king sized bed where we
made the most of what could be
His love was all for me
He went south and I went west
to see what I could see
I thought I would be free
but I took his heart with me
How could I ever let him go
When I love him so
Don't you think in this light he's a lot like me
And I'd follow her anywhere
just to show her how much I care
nothing is quite right till it's her and me
So I made my mind up packed my life
and drove out to the sea
where my baby might be
Would she be waiting for me?
and headed to Tennessee
Just my baby and me
my baby and me
Took the highway through the night
and made it by daylight
Just my baby and me
my baby and me
How could I ever let her go
When I love her so
Don't you think in this light she's a lot like me
One day of rest with her bare chest
our king sized bed where we
made the most of what could be
His love was all for me
He went south and I went west
to see what I could see
I thought I would be free
but I took his heart with me
How could I ever let him go
When I love him so
Don't you think in this light he's a lot like me
And I'd follow her anywhere
just to show her how much I care
nothing is quite right till it's her and me
So I made my mind up packed my life
and drove out to the sea
where my baby might be
Would she be waiting for me?
