I left the west-coast, watched the palm trees wave goodbye. It was a hard drive, had to say goodbye to you. I stopped for some Coca Cola and some corn nuts too.
I thought about turnin' back, I already missed you.
If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away. If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way. Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train, take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide.
If you need me, you know where I'll be, in Tennessee.
Goin' through my boxes, found a photograph where you're sittin' on a mule in Mexico. Picture perfect point of view. And then a postcard dropped from a book you gave me on my birthday, and it hit me, baby.
If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away. If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way. Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train, take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide.
If you need me, leave L.A., we'll take it day-by-day.
All alone, here I am, by the phone, understand, it's not too late; what are you wating for?
If you need me, you know where I'll be, yeah, in Tennessee.
Well, it's a Sunday morning, I awake, it's just another lonely day. I lie in bed and wonder how long is this gonna take? Then I think to myself: "Will I ever get a break? Did I make a big mistake?"
Well, I light the fire, I draw the bubble bath; Hey, you do the math. It's just me, an' I'm without you. What else could I do?
If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away. If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way. Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train, take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide. If you need me, you know where I'll be,
in Tennessee.
