Little Rock - Hayes Carll

Wake up in the mornin'

Long and lean

Stoppin' at the corner

Cigarettes and gasoline

Pulling down main street

Shifting through the gears

Rolling up that highway

They’ve been working on for years

One eye on the sunrise

One eye the clock

Come tomorrow mornin'

Lord, I’m gonna make it down to

Little rock

I search through L.A. county

The valleys and the stars

Del Rio to the bayou

All those honkey tonks and bars

I been through Seattle

Driving through the rain

Praying through New York City

Just-a calling out your name

To all these years of searchin'

I finally found my spot

One way or another

Lord, I’m gonna make it down to

Little rock

Hey, all my life I tried to find

A piece of this earth

For my piece of mind

All these years of searchin'

Let my troubles disappear

Baby, find a place where

We can sit and drink a beer

Have a pack in seven hours

Boot up on the shelf

Singin' to the radio

And talkin' to myself

Screamin' through the forest

Magic on my soul (unverified)

90 miles an hour

On the cruise control

I’m blowin' by the truckers

The grandmas and the cops

What your hurry son?

It’s just that I’m on my way to

Little rock

Well, baby get ready

Trouble’s on its way

Only thinking 'bout you

Every night and every day

Tell all your other lovers

Forget about the past

Ain’t even gonna worry

'Cause this time it’s gonna last

I’m coming around the corner

Ain’t even gonna knock

Hey, pretty baby

Here comes your daddy down to

Little rock

Hey little rock

I’m going to little rock

I may be the only one

But I’m going

I ain’t sleeping on the couch
