Little Rock Lyrics - Little Rock - Hayes Carll

Wake up in the mornin' 

Long and lean 

Stoppin' at the corner 

Cigarettes and gasoline 

Pulling down main street 

Shifting through the gears 

Rolling up that highway 

They've been working on for years 

One eye on the sunrise 

One eye the clock 

Come tomorrow mornin' 

Lord, I'm gonna make it down to 

Little rock 

I search through L.A. county 

The valleys and the stars 

Del Rio to the bayou 

All those honkey tonks and bars 

I been through Seattle 

Driving through the rain 

Praying through New York City 

Just-a calling out your name 

To all these years of searchin' 

I finally found my spot 

One way or another 

Lord, I'm gonna make it down to 

Little rock 

Hey, all my life I tried to find 

A piece of this earth 

For my piece of mind 

All these years of searchin' 

Let my troubles disappear 

Baby, find a place where 

We can sit and drink a beer 

Have a pack in seven hours 

Boot up on the shelf 

Singin' to the radio 

And talkin' to myself 

Screamin' through the forest 

Magic on my soul (unverified) 

90 miles an hour 

On the cruise control 

I'm blowin' by the truckers 

The grandmas and the cops 

What your hurry son? 

It's just that I'm on my way to 

Little rock 

Well, baby get ready 

Trouble's on its way 

Only thinking 'bout you 

Every night and every day 

Tell all your other lovers 

Forget about the past 

Ain't even gonna worry 

'Cause this time it's gonna last 

I'm coming around the corner 

Ain't even gonna knock 

Hey, pretty baby 

Here comes your daddy down to 

Little rock 

Hey little rock 

I'm going to little rock 

I may be the only one 

But I'm going 

I ain't sleeping on the couch
