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 looking for true north With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out
CHORUS: Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love 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 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' lets fire it up and wind it out
CHORUS
BRIDGE: I heard your mama callin', I think she was just stallin'
Don't know who she was talkin' to, baby me and you We could go down with a smile on, don't bother to pack your nylons Just keep them pretty legs showin', it gets hot down where we're goin' We were always looking for true north With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out Come on baby drive, come on baby drive south, come on baby drive south
