Tallahassee Baby

Well the truck's on the highway the winds blowing high
I come in from the north under October skies
Oh Tallahassee baby it's sure good to see you again
Oh Tallahassee baby my one and only dear sweet friend

Well I've been living on the run like a slave through the woods
Pushing this rig from Bangor to Hollywood
Oh Tallahassee baby you still doing the bump and grind
Oh Tallahassee baby girl it's been a long long time

Well the last time I was with you we nearly got caught
Out behind the club in the parking lot
Your boss man with his threats your rich boy with his gun
It's lucky I left my motor to run

Well I can see pretty clear nothing much has really changed
It's still the same old crowd still the same cheating game
Oh Tallahassee baby they sure got a bag of tricks
Oh Tallahassee baby this world is like an oil slick

Well everyday I stop to catch the sunrise
Trying to get a grip on this life blowing by
Sometimes I remember back to Jackson Square
Me with my guitar and you dancing there

Well I hear voices calling I guess I better go
There's so much to say so much we'll never know
Oh Tallahassee baby it's so hard to face the truth
Oh Tallahassee baby girl I'm still in love with you
Tallahassee baby
