It Gets the Worst at Night

It gets the worst at night

With nothin' on my mind

But you

I'm thinkin' too damn much

I go ahead and get up

And put on my boots

So I can drive as far as I can get from you

On my way out of town

I drive by your house

Two times

It don't do me no good

I didn't think that it would

'Cause you're not mine

You might've seen me

But I kept on drivin' by

Gonna lose myself on some dark road tonight

'Cause there's somethin' 'bout just layin' down

And takin' all that pain

I'd rather drive all night if it's all the same

'Cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough

To be completely lost by the time the sun comes up

And so it's four A.M.

I'm on the road again

To find some peace

On some old gravel road

Well, God only knows

There's nothin' for me

And there ain't nothin' left for me in Tennessee

'Cause I know you're not awake thinkin' of me

And there's somethin' 'bout just layin' down

And takin' all that pain

I'd rather drive all night if it's all the same

'Cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough

To be completely lost by the time the sun comes up

And there ain't nothin' left for me in Tennessee

'Cause I know you're not awake thinkin' of me
