[Verse 1] You fell in love with America when you were 12 years old And by 17 you knew you had to see it all You loved your dad and the love he had for your mother so You had to get out and go chasin' it's sweet call
[Verse 2] I met you there in Texas somewhere on the thoroughfare On the side of the road in some torn up clothes with a pistol in my pocket I didn't trust no one but you said "Baby, don't run, I'll take you anywhere" So I hopped right in, outta luck to spend, and at least your truck beats walking
[Chorus] And you said "Hey, do you wanna see the west with me? Cause lovе's out there and I can't leavе it be" And I said "Honey, love's never meant much to me But I'll come with you if you're sure it's what you need"
[Verse 3] So we made off for California to find your lover, driving day and night And every small town diner saw our faces at least once or twice But in these motel rooms, I started to see you differently Cause for the first time since I was a child, I could see a man who wasn't angry
[Verse 4] And he said “It's been a long damn time since I left Florida, no one left to leave, no one left to love But now that I met you, I finally know just where I'm headin'” And we found heaven in time where your western sunshine met my deep southern wet And you got lost in it and yet you found yourself hard pressed for air and sweatin'
[Chorus] And you said "Hey, do you wanna see the west with me? (Do you wanna see the west with me?) Cause love's out there and I can't leave it be" (I can't leave it, I can't leave it) And I said "Honey, love's never meant that much to me (Nothing much) But I'll come with you if you're sure it's what you need"
[Bridge] Once we reached the coast you said "End of the line, we finally hit the edge, after all this time I didn't find my love but I still made it this far without it" But then you turned to me and stared into me deep and said "But maybe not, cause look at what I've got You might not be my love, but, baby, I doubt it"
[Chorus] And you said "Hey, do you wanna see the west with me? Cause love's out there and I can't leave it be" And I said "Honey, love's never meant much to me But I'll come with you if you're sure it's what you need"
[Outro] Cause in your pickup truck with all of your dumb luck is the only place I think I'd ever wanna be
