The P&L Project - Two County Lines Lyrics

It's been a long day workin' in this summer heat
Finally, that whistle blows
It's time to go drivin' across town
Man, this traffic's slow
Come on baby, run away with me
Everything will be just fine
Drivin' all night on this empty highway
Across two county lines
Now I'm standing here knockin' on your daddy's door
Door swings open
Oh, it's you!
I ask him for his daughter's hand
He screams,
Never! Not a guy like you!
(Daddy!)
Come on baby, run away with me
Everything will be just fine
Drivin' all night on this empty highway
Across two county lines
Later you're sneakin' out your bedroom window
With a suitcase in your hand (Quiet, he'll hear)
Hoppin' in the front of my pick-up truck
We're leaving this town behind
Standing in a wedding chapel
I slide a diamond ring on your hand (I do)
Your daddy and his 12-gauge shotgun
They just don't understand (They don't)
A few years later, after many struggles
We have a home piece of land
Two sweet little babies of our own
All because you took my hand (I did)
Come on baby, run away with me
Everything will be just fine
Drivin' all night on this empty highway
Across two county lines
Come on baby, run away with me
Everything will be just fine
Drivin' all night on this empty highway
Across two county lines
Come on, baby
Run away with me
Everything will be just fine
Your daddy, he just don't understand
