Backseat Driver Lyrics

Hey honey, I am going away

Won't be back until September

Going south to watch the springtime do her thing

Yeah, sweet honey, I am going away

Won't be back until September

I'll see you when them autumn bells start to ring

Singing so long to the city

So long blue deja vu

So long to the wind and the rain

And we'll be drinking spring water straight from the fountain

That Asheville air sure tastes nice

It's been such a long, long climb up the mountain

Sure does look like that blue ridge sun is on the rise

My oh my

Driving down the east coast

Feel that southern twang

Twenty five miles to the gallon gonna get you where you want to go

I grabbed my things and I sold the rest

I quit my job, oh no

Taking the long way over to New Mexico

Singing hello to the open road

Hello glowing stranger

Hello to wherever it is I lay my head tonight

And we'll be drinking spring water straight from the fountain

That Asheville air sure tastes nice

It's been such a long, long climb up the mountain

Sure does look like that blue ridge sun is on the rise

My oh my

Backseat driver

Thirsty for imaginary control

Best to not hold your breath on that one

And maybe heaven ain't so far away

Wild horses gallop on down by the waterside, watch them run

Free kicks, come and get you some

Singing so long to the city

So long blue deja vu

So long to the wind and the rain

And we'll be drinking spring water straight from the fountain

That Asheville air sure tastes nice

It's been such a long, long climb up the mountain

Sure looks like that blue ridge sun is on the rise

My oh my

Hey honey, I am going away

Won't be back until September

Going south to watch the springtime do her thing

Yeah, sweet honey, I am going away

Won't be back until September

I'll see you when them autumn bells start to ring
