destination anywhere


hey babe, it's me parked outside your house
i know that he's asleep, so listen to me now
darlin', i'm tired of living just in your dreams
i'm getting out
you know we both sold our souls
we're just growing old, in this sleepy, dead-end town

destination anywhere
name the place and i'll be there
pack a bag a we're out of here - let's run

baby, we both been running uphill for too long
we both settled for something, got nothing
and we both know it's wrong
go on admit it we lived it, i'm leaving -
get your boots and come on
i got my coat and my keys, i need you next to me, then i'm gone

destination anywhere
name the place and i'll be there
pack a bag a we're out of here - let's run
destination anywhere
left of right, i don't care
maybe we'll just disappear like the sun

when these wheels spin, they can all eat our dust
as far as i'm concerned, this whole town's lost
it's nuts
we won't be here when they put us down
it's our big chance and i'm calling you now
they'll never let us go unless we try
i'm tired of living just to die
we're getting out of here, destination anywhere

destination anywhere
name the place and i'll be there
pack a bag a we're out of here - let's run
destination anywhere
left of right, i don't care
maybe we'll just disappear like the sun, come on

queen of new orleans

she said baby our love's just like your songs
the beat ain't bad but the words are all wrong
it's time to pack my bags, it's time to just move on
she sang johnny, i'm gone, gone, gone
and she was gone

me and leigh met summer of '95
in a burgundy dress lookin' finer than a french wine
a cajun queen with another side
she was a schoolboy's dream, i was out of my mind
she was lookin' fine
she said "you want to drive me home"
but what i didn't know...

ooh, ooh - i was dancing with the
queen of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans
ooh, ooh - it was almost like a dream

that night i made a move, man i felt hard
when i put my hands in her cookie jar
she was more than a girl, she was a cabaret star
i was a deer in the lights of a speeding car
nothing's what it seems
she was a venus de milo in her sister's jeans

ooh, ooh - i was dancing with the
queen of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans
ooh, ooh - it was almost like a dream

ooh, ooh - i was dancing with the
queen of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans
ooh, ooh - i was dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing with the queen down bourbon st.

ooh, ooh - i was dancing with the
queen of new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans
ooh, ooh - nothings what it seems in new orleans
ooh, ooh - dancing with the queen of new orleans

ooh, ooh - i was dancing with the queen of new orleans

janie, don't take your love to town

sitting here just watching you sleep
wish i could slip inside and be
in some technicolor dream
but the air's too thick for one of us to breathe
i'm not fool enough to think
you couldn't live life without me

i didn't come this far to throw the towel in
i didn't fight this hard to walk away
if i ain't smart enough to say i'm sorry
it's just because the words got in the way

i remember how it used to be
i was you and you were me
we were more than just the same
now these shoes don't fit, my skin's too tight
when you want a kiss, i take a bite
let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights

last night i drak enough to drown
raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
look, we both know how much i've let you down
janie don't you take your love to town

janie don't you take your love to town
janie don't you take your love to town
if i've got to beg, i'll beg, just don't walk away
janie don't you take your love to town

you deserve a shooter, a saint
someone to give it to you straight
to find the soul throught flesh and bone
my life's a treasure, full of sunny weather
but it's left me feeling cold
now all you want to do is take me home

i hated you, the night you said you loved me
i hated you, 'cause i couldn't love myself
i'm begging you now, baby please just hold me
i got one foot in, one foot off the ground

janie don't you take your love to town
janie don't you take your love to town
if i've got to beg, i'll beg, just don't walk away
janie don't you take your love to town

sitting here while you're fast asleep
in the bathroom by the sink
trying to write the right words down
i turn out the lights, close my eyes
there ain't no prayers or kiss goodnight
what i'll forget to say tomorrow, i'll say now
janie don't you take your love to town

janie don't you take your love to town
janie don't you take your love to town
if i've got to beg, i'll beg, just don't walk away
janie don't you take your love to town
