Kimmie Rhodes & Willie Nelson - I Just Drove By lyrics

rate me

I always go the other way<br />

But my car drove me down today<br />

To a little house on the older side of town<br />

<br />

Back when things were never hard<br />

I used to play there in that yard<br />

And I just drove by to see if things had changed<br />

<br />

Cokes were just a nickel then<br />

And across the street at the five and ten<br />

A lot of things were cheap and square and strange<br />

<br />

And life that we had, might have been<br />

It was one we loved believin' in<br />

And I just drove by to see if things had changed<br />

<br />

I wondered now if love is still<br />

The way it was back then<br />

I need to know that life is still a place worth livin' in<br />

<br />

There it is just like it was<br />

A house where there was always love<br />

I just drove by to see if things had changed<br />

<br />

In a world that's seen it's better days<br />

It's good to know some things remain the same<br />

Though standing still is not times way<br />

<br />

Take to heart while in it's spring<br />

That love is just a fragile thing<br />

Oh, I just drove by to see if things had changed<br />

<br />

I wondered now if love is still<br />

The way it was back then<br />

I need to know that life is still a place worth livin' in<br />

<br />

There it is just like it was<br />

A house where there was always love<br />

And I just drove by to see if things had changed<br />

I just drove by to see if things had changed
