Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Ridin' down the road in my pick-up truck Ya better get ready cause I'm pickin' you up With a full moon a shinin' and a little bit a luck We'll run out outta gas and maybe get stuck We could get lost baby I don't care I ain't worried as long as you're there There ain't no place that I'd rather be Next to sittin' next to me There ain't no place that I'd rather be Next to you, next to me Barbecue chicken in aluminum foil Just enough money for my gas and oil Who needs your shrimp and your caviar? I'd sooner have you just the way you are Rich people got their money to hold Mansion on the hill 'n' diamonds and gold Well, it can't compare as far as I can see Next to sittin' next to me There ain't no place that I'd rather be Next to you, next to me Radio playin' our favorite song I'll change the station if the news comes on When the signal ain't comin' in too strong We'll make our music honey all night long If the Good Lord's willin' when we're old and gray The kids are grown up and moved away We'll be rocking' here side by side With the BBQ chicken and the TV guide Well, it can't compare as far as I can see Next to sittin' next to me There ain't no place that I'd rather be Next to you, next to me
