It’s been a long time since I came aroundBeen a long time but I’m back in townAnd this time I’m not leavin’ without you
You taste like whiskey when you kiss me aweI’d give anything again to be your babydollThis time I’m not leaving without you
He said, sit back down where you belongIn the corner of my bar with your high heels onSit back down on the couch where we made love the first timeAnd you said to me
(There’s somethin’)Somethin’, somethin’ about this placeSomethin’ ’bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your faceSomethin’, somethin’ about my cool Nebraska guyYeah somethin’ about baby you and I
It’s been two years since I let you goI couldn’t listen to a joke or rock n’ rollAnd muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart
On my birthday you sang me Heart of GoldWith a guitar hummin’ and no clothesThis time I’m not leaving without you
He said, sit back down where you belongIn the corner of my bar with your high heels onSit back down on the couch where we made love the first timeAnd you said to me
(There’s somethin’)Somethin’, somethin’ about this placeSomethin’ ’bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your faceSomethin’, somethin’ about my cool Nebraska guyYeah somethin’ about baby you and I
You and I, you you and IYou you and I, you you and IYou and I, you you and IBaby I’d rather die, without you and I
(Come on put your drinks up)
We gotta whole lotta money but we still pay rent’Cause you can’t buy a house in heavenThere’s only three men that ima serve my whole lifeIt’s my daddy, and Nebraska and Jesus Christ
(There’s somethin’)Somethin’, somethin’ about the chase(6 whole years)I’m a New York woman born to run you downStill want my lipstick all over your faceThere’s somethin’, somethin’ about just knowin’ when it’s right
So put your drinks up for Nebraska, for Nebraska, Nebraska I love ya
You and I, you you and IBaby I’d rather dieWithout you and IYou and I, you you and INebraska I’d rather die, without you and I
It’s been a long time since I came aroundBeen a long time but I’m back in townAnd this time I’m not leaving without you
