Taking The Long Way

Well, I was thinking 'bout a front porch kiss 'bout to drop you off

But we got to talking, so I wound up circling the block

Then you leaned over, turned the radio up

And I turned the tires on this pickup truck

To where the blacktop roads run out

But looks like baby right now

I'm taking the long way

Turning left when I should've turned right

It's been a long day

Looking like it's gonna be a long night

Got 300 horses and a 20 gallon tank, two hearts raring to go

We're taking the long way

I'm taking you home, home, home, yeah

Your smiles telling me to keep going, so I ain't gonna stop

Until the sun comes up or these eight lug wheels fall off

Well, baby, we can go fast, or we can go slow

Just keep them kisses on cruise control

We got us a wild hare

We gonna get there when we get there

I'm taking the long way

Turning left when I should've turned right

It's been a long day

Looking like it's gonna be a long night

Got 300 horses and a 20 gallon tank, two hearts raring to go

We're taking the long way

I'm taking you home, home, home, yeah
