Lyrics
Verse
I've been a drifter since the age of five
My mother said I was born with my suitcase packed
I ran with gangs in Abilene
I met my baby in a laundromat
Verse
She says she likes my attitude
She says I look real good in denim
And in my car
We are gods
And we're driving through heaven
Chorus
She says
"Hey
Where are you taking me?"
She says
"Oh
I can't wait to see"
She says
"I'm ready
Baby"
She says
"Let's drive"
Verse
We spent all our money in Las Vegas
We bought a couple of diamond rings
We were outlaws on the run
But our getaway was going so well
Verse
The cops pulled us over in Kingman
My baby went for my .44
I tried to warn her
But she just smiled
She said
"Don't worry
This is what we're here for"
Chorus
She says
"Hey
Where are you taking me?"
She says
"Oh
I can't wait to see"
She says
"I'm ready
Baby"
She says
"Let's drive"
Bridge
The ground was dry and the dust was thick
And I swear I heard her voice on the wind
