Restless boy walking contradiction Blowing around like paper in the wind Pretty girl not much for conversation Quiet, tired and braced down in indiana? Moonlight road Last flight down to memphis Hundred miles in the mississippi night Sometimes she gets the loneliest condition And she see's those landing lights coming into sight Hundred miles in the mississippi night Sometimes she gets the loneliest condition And she see's those landing lights coming into sight High time i take you home Long time that i be gone And i'm gonna rock you in my arms tonight And if the mockingbird don't sing Gonna find a diamond ring And someday i'll take you for my bride Back in school she was quite successful Those midwest boys are making eyes at them She turned on the charm It was over It fell like dominoes into her hand? And it's high time i take you home Long time that i be gone And gonna rock you in my arms tonight And if your mockingbird won't sing Gonna find a diamond ring Someday i'll take you for my bride And the moonlight lights up the runway Down in pittsburgh Snow is falling on the freeway Motel shuttle running And shes listening to the beach boys Airport lounge She lost in contemplation Of how many nights have ended up the same He walks in but doesn't make the connection He's flying out on that detroit leg again And its high time i take you home Long time that i be gone And gonna rock you in my arms tonight And if your mockingbird won't sing Gonna find a diamond ring And someday i'll take you for my bride
