It ain't 3 a. m
And I ain't been drinking
But it's been one of those days
That's got my head spinning
I been rushing around till I'm dizzy
Feeling lonely in the crowd of the city
It ain't 3 a. m
And I ain't been drinking

But I need a ride home
To that little town
Where I'll always be 16 years old
I need a two lane, can't pass
Foot on the gas, go real slow
A little magic, little static on the radio
Mom and daddy
Sitting on the front porch waving hello
Yeah I need a ride home

I wanna hear the click of that old transmission
I need a quick trip
Oh back to that table in the kitchen
I wanna see that little creek rushing
Right next to those fields full of nothing
I need a strong shot of something
I've been missing

Yeah I need a ride home
To that little town
Where I'll always be 16 years old
I need a two lane, can't pass
Foot on the gas, go real slow
A little magic, little static on the radio
Mom and daddy
Sitting on the front porch waving hello
Yeah I need a ride home

It ain't 3 a. m
And I ain't been drinking
But it's been one of those days
That's got me thinking

I need a ride home
To that little town
Where I'll always be 16 years old
I need a two lane, can't pass
Foot on the the gas, go real slow
A little magic, little static on the radio
Mom and daddy
Sitting on the front porch waving hello
Yeah let's go
I need a ride home
Oh I need a ride home
