You Can Sleep While I Drive - Melissa Etheridge

Come on baby let’s get out of this town… I got a full tank of gas with the top

rolled down There’s a chill in my bones… I don’t want to be left alone So baby

you can sleep while I drive

I’ll pack my bag and load up my guitar… In my pocket I’ll carry my harp

I got some money I saved… Enough to get underway

And baby you can sleep while I drive

We’ll go thorough Tucson up to Santa Fe… And Barbara in Nashville says we’re

welcome to stay

I’ll buy you glasses in Texas a hat from New Orleans

And in the morning you can tell me your dreams

You know I’ve seen it before… This mist that covers your eyes

You’ve been looking for something… That's not in your life

My intentions are true… Won't you take me with you

And baby you can sleep while I drive

Oh is it other arms you want to… Hold you the stranger

The lover you’re free… Can't you get that with me

Come on baby let’s get out of this town… I got a full tank of gas with the top

rolled down

If you won’t take me with you… I'll go before night is through

And baby you can sleep while I drive
