Good Directions

by billy currington

I was sittin’ there sellin’ turnips on a flatbed truck
Crunchin’ or a pork rind when she pulled up
She had to be thinkin’ “This is where the rednecks come from”
She had Hollywood written on her license plate
She was lost and lookin’ for the interstate
Needin’ directions and I was the man for the job

[Chorus]
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
There’s a little country store with an old Coke sign
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Then a left will take you to the interstate
But a right will bring you right back here to me

I was sittin’ there thinkin’ ‘bout her pretty face
Kickin’ myself for not catchin’ her name
I threw my hat and thought, “You fool, that coulda been love”
I knew my old Ford couldn’t run her down
She probably didn’t like me anyhow
So I watched her disappear in a cloud of dust.

[Chorus]
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
There’s a little country store with an old Coke sign
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Then a left will take you to the interstate
But a right will bring you right back here to me

Is this Georgia heat playin’ tricks on me
Or am I really seein’ what I think I see
The woman of my dreams comin’ back to me

She went way up yonder past the caution light
Don’t know why, but somethin’ felt right
When she stopped in and asked Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Mama gave her a big ‘ol glass and sent her right back here to me

Thank God for good directions…and turnip greens

come a little closer baby
i feel like layin you down
an a bed of sweet surrender where we
can work it all out
there ain't nothin that love can't fix
girl it's right here at our finger tips
so come a little closer baby
i feel like layin you down
some a little closer baby
i feel like lettin go
of everything that stand between us
and the love we used to know
i wanna touch you like a crimson robe
and let it wash all your hurt away
so come a little closer baby
i feel like lettin go

if there's still a chance than take my hand
and we'll steal away
off into the night
until we make things right
the sun's gonna rise, on a better day

come a little closer baby i feel like strippin it down
back to the basics of ou and me and what makes the world go round
every inch of you accross my skin
i wanna be stronger than we've ever been
so come a little closer baby
i feel like strippin it down

come a little closer baby
just a little bit closer baby
come a little closer baby
i feel like layin you down
