Everybody's looking for some way in,
I'm looking for some way out.
I've been wasting my time, standing in line,
If this is what it's all about.
All I got is a job that I don't like,
And a woman that don't understand.
So tonight at the bar, I'll get in my car,
And take off for the Promised Land.
*Chorus*
Drinkin' and dreamin', knowing damn well I can't go,
I'll never see Texas, L.A. or ol' Mexico.
But here at this table, I'm able to leave it behind.
Drink till I'm dreamin', a thousand miles out of my mind.
*break*
This suit and this tie, is just a disguise,
This ain't really me.
Some people are born to be tied down,
Some people are born to be free.
When I look down the road, she don't know,
How it gets under my skin.
She's got my body, but my heart and soul,
Are out there riding the wind.
*Chorus*
Drinkin' and dreamin', knowing damn well I can't go,
I'll never see Texas, L.A. or ol' Mexico.
But here at this table, I'm able to leave it behind.
Drink till I'm dreamin', a thousand miles out of my mind.
*Chorus*
Drinkin' and dreamin', knowing damn well I can't go,
I'll never see Texas, L.A. or ol' Mexico.
But here at this table, I'm able to leave it behind.
Drink till I'm dreamin', a thousand miles out of my mind.
