Sweet Potato Taco - Rare Candy

I’ve been driving through the mountains

As the sun beats on my cheeks

I haven’t been back home

Or seen my girl in what feels like has been weeks

I just packed my bags

I locked my door

And I’ve come to miss my baby so

But this one town life isn’t for me anymore

Now I sing my songs with pride

With a big smile on my face

My head’s held high, my arms are wide, I’ve many dreams to chase

I don’t miss my bed

I don’t mind the cold

And I’ll wish one day she’ll come to stay, and I’ll bring my baby with me on

the road

And I walked through Carolina

And drove through Tennessee

I made my way through Texas, but that’s not the place for me

I need open road

I need change of pace

And I drive all day and sing all night

If I’m with my girl I’ve come to find my place

Finally my baby’s here beside me

I’ve made the longest journey home

I haven’t checked the time or gotten up, I don’t care to check my phone

I’ve got all I want

I’ve got all I need

Her eyes are closed, her skin is warm, and she’s sleeping peacefully

I can’t think about the after

My darling’s here with me

I can finally sleep and close the book

And ever live together happily

My lips are shut

There’s nothing more to say

One day I’ll settle down, I promise you

I’ve done my part

I’ve come back home to stay
