Sheryl Crow - 100 Miles From Memphis lyrics

rate me

(Scent of an angel)

Keeps me driving all night just to get to you

(Scent of an angel)

I keep your picture on my dash just to get me through

(Scent of an angel)

Reminds me of those crazy nights down in Mexico

(Scent of an angel)

Ah, temptation got a way of turning the lights down low

You're cool in your faded blue jeans

Just a fool in a tequila soaked dream

But you ain't no saint

You know I ain't no beauty queen

I was stuck in this border town

If we make it out before sundown

Baby let's slide on over

Over to the other side of the tracks

I got nothing behind me

Nothing left to remind me

Just a worn out picture

And a number written on the back

So let's move on down

Shake this town

Drive a while

A hundred miles from Memphis

A song playing in my head

Send me an angel

Move on up ahead

(Scent of an angel)

Sending a message

Cause I feel a little cold and blue

(Scent of an angel)

Ah, expensive habit sure took one hold of you

Crawling in on a Sunday

And leaving town on Monday

There's a whole world waiting

Waiting on the other side of the line

I got nothing behind me

Nothing left to remind me

Just a worn out picture

A vision of you by my side

So let's head on down

Shake this town

Drive a while

A hundred miles from here

(Rolling, rolling)

(Somewhere back in town)

I'm stuck in this border town

If we make it out before sundown

Baby let's slide on over

Over to the other side of the tracks

I got nothing behind me

Nothing left to remind me

Just a worn out picture

And a number written on the back

So let's move on down

Get around, shake this town

Drive a while, go in style

A hundred miles from here

Here comes the morning

And here comes the morning

Here comes the morning

Here comes the morning
