Take Me Back

(Donny Wright)
Take Me Back

If you would only take me back
I’d quit my wanderin’ ways
I’d find a steady job
I’d give you all of my pay
I’d do anything you want
Anything you say
If you would only take me back
I’d quit my wanderin’ ways

South of Seattle got a hundred mile ride
From a trucker from Macon He’s haulin double wides
He said he hates the north never feels at home
Got me to wonderin’ what makes a man roam

Chorus

Camped out in this phone booth tried to call you up collect
All I got for tryin’ was this kink in my neck
I don’t know a single soul in this funky truck stop
So I’ll pretend I’m Clint Eastwood hang out in the barber shop

Chorus

The waitress sure is pretty she reminds me of you
She probably thinks I’m crazy I know I think so too
If I ever get to Georgia I’ll never ever leave
That’s what I said the last time but now I do believe

Chours
