Caralee - RIPÉ

Rise

It’s just another early morning out of Davidson

Feeling so much better than you’ve got a right to feel

Good enough to take an unplanned four hour stop in Washington

Good enough you’re not completely sure that girl is real

And 'til you know you’re singing

Sweet Caralee

Won’t you confuse me like you’re supposed to

I’m not certain what to do about you

Sweet, leave me be

Don’t make me sad I ever met you Caralee

I’ll sing this song till I forget you Caralee

Sing it to me Caralee

Drink

As though your body cannot meet tomorrow fast enough

Come on, sugar, bottoms up

Drive as though it’s easier with just one hand on the wheel

Better put your right hand on the wheel

Drive all night to find an Asheville man whose bed you call your own

Blow his mind then add him to the list of things you leave behind

And you’ll have one more singing

Sweet Caralee…

And now there’s one more singing

Sweet Caralee…
