Billy Joe Royal - Live Oak Lullaby Lyrics

I'm looking out towards the highway

Searching for something more
Can't figure out what I'm gonna find
Don't know what I'm looking for
But you're my southern lady
Never gonna leave my side
Hop in the truck, give me a kiss for luck
Cause tonight we're gonna ride

We can settle down on the gulf shore
Spread our lives out on the bay
Sit out on the porch all night
Make love all through the day

Our neighbors are gonna hate us
They'll hear us all night long
Say we're too damn loud
But it's you and me now
I don't want to be right
If it's wrong

We'll drink champagne to the new life
Trick or treat in the middle of May
I'll buy you a ring from a carnival machine
Take a trip through Santa Fe
And when we get back we can feel that wind blow
Listen to the songbirds cry
Sit outside and get lost in us
To a live oak lullaby

Our friends say that we're crazy
Cause that highway is so dark
How do we know where it's gonna end
If we don't know where to start
But our love has been through more
Than anybody knows
Scream it out, roll your windows down
We've got a hundred more miles to go

We'll drink champagne to the new life
Trick or treat in the middle of May
I'll buy you a ring from the carnival machine
Take a trip through Santa Fe
And when we get back we can feel that wind blow
Listen to the songbirds cry
Sit outside and get lost in us
To a live oak lullaby
