Happy to Drive
I met her somewhere between
DTX and Tennessee
A bright eyed girl who fell for me
Beneath the tall East Texas trees
North on 49 I'd go
Through the timber wood that lined the road
Four bald tires and a tank on "E"
I'd roll on through the night
No, I never drove alone
I'd see her where the moonlight shone
Smiling behind my highlight beams
I sure was happy to drive
Turnpike songs and zydeco
Ringing in the year with a long drive home
Blasting out my radio
Got no sleep but felt alive
Hearts burning like a river boat queen
She'd be proud to marry me
Lay claim of that shotgun seat
I'd sure be happy to drive
So I'll drive
On through the night
I'll trace those highway lines
She'll be on my mind
I can't lie, I wouldn't mind
To have her little hand in mine
We can see the world from behind a dash
Wheels spinning, hearts thumping fast and
As the road winds and bends
I'm praying this ride never ends
She can stay right here by my side
I'd sure be happy to drive
Oh, I would drive
DTX and Tennessee
A bright eyed girl who fell for me
Beneath the tall East Texas trees
North on 49 I'd go
Through the timber wood that lined the road
Four bald tires and a tank on "E"
I'd roll on through the night
No, I never drove alone
I'd see her where the moonlight shone
Smiling behind my highlight beams
I sure was happy to drive
Turnpike songs and zydeco
Ringing in the year with a long drive home
Blasting out my radio
Got no sleep but felt alive
Hearts burning like a river boat queen
She'd be proud to marry me
Lay claim of that shotgun seat
I'd sure be happy to drive
So I'll drive
On through the night
I'll trace those highway lines
She'll be on my mind
I can't lie, I wouldn't mind
To have her little hand in mine
We can see the world from behind a dash
Wheels spinning, hearts thumping fast and
As the road winds and bends
I'm praying this ride never ends
She can stay right here by my side
I'd sure be happy to drive
Oh, I would drive
