You Can Sleep While I Drive

Come on baby let's get out of this townI got a full tank of gas with the top rolled downThere's a chill in my bonesI don't want to be left aloneSo baby you can sleep while I driveI'll pack my bag and load up my guitarIn my pocket I'll carry my harpI got some money I savedEnough to get underwayAnd baby you can sleep while I driveWe'll go thorough Tucson up to Santa FeAnd Barbara in Nashville says we're welcome to stayI'll buy you glasses in Texas a hat from New OrleansAnd in the morning you can tell me your dreamsYou know I've seen it beforeThis mist that covers your eyesYou've been looking for somethingThat's not in your lifeMy intentions are trueWon't you take me with youAnd baby you can sleep while I driveOh is it other arms you want to hold youthe strangerBut lover you're freeCan't you get that with meCome on baby let's get out of this townI got a full tank of gas with the top rolled downIf you won't take me with youI'll go before night is throughAnd baby you can sleep while I drive
