Girl, I'm gonna warn ya, I'm leaving California
First thing in the mornin', me and the band
Are loadin' up the van
We gotta go, we gotta another show
We're headed out to Reno, Jackson Hole
After that, I don't really know
But if you're lookin' for a good time
We can make us a memory of Bakersfield tonight[Chorus]
And then I'll write you a song
You might hear it on the radio
Baby, you never know
But it's gonna be just about you
And me, how much I miss ya
Yeah, the one that got away
You're gonna hear your song some dayNow I'm talkin' to this sweet thing
Backstage in Tennessee
She says, she wants to take me home
And show me a couple things I didn't know
Come on, let's go but I gotta hit the road
In the mornin', I'm headed down to San Antone
As long as we're back by sunrise
We can make us a memory of Nashville tonight[Chorus]
And then I'll write you a song
You might hear it on the radio
Baby, you never know
But it's gonna be just about you
And me, how much I miss ya
Yeah, the one that got away
You're gonna hear your song some dayAnd I swear I'm not a bad guy
I just don't got a whole lotta time
It always ends with the same goodbye[Chorus]
And then I'll write you a song
You might hear it on the radio
Baby, you never know
But it's gonna be just about you
And me, how much I miss ya
Yeah, the one that got away
You're gonna hear your song some dayYeah, you're gonna hear your song someday
When I write you a song
Yeah, baby when I write you a song
Yeah, I'm gonna write ya
Yeah, I'm gonna write you a song, girl
Someone get me a guitar
