Kelly Willis - Drive South Lyrics

I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anymore
That's how you learn you just get burned
But we don't have to feel like dirt anymore
Though love's not earned baby it's our turn
We were always lookin' for true north
With our heads in the clouds just a little off course
I left that motor runnin' now if you're feelin' down and out

Come on baby drive south with the one you love
Hey come on baby drive south with the one you love

I'm not talkin' bout retreatin' little girl
Gonna take our stand in this Chevy van
Windows open on the rest of the world
Holdin' hands all the way to Dixieland
Now 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

Come on baby drive south with the one you love
Hey come on baby drive south with the one you love

I heard your mama callin' I think she was just stallin'
Don't know who she's talkin' to baby me and you
We could go down with a smile on ain't gonna pack my nylons
Just leave these pretty legs showin' it gets hot down where we're goin'
[ guitar ]
Now e were always lookin' for true north
With our heads in the clouds just a little off course
I left that motor runnin' now if you're feelin' down and out

Come on baby come on baby drive south with the one you love
Hey come on baby drive south with the one you love
