Good Directions

 

Good Directions Lyrics

I was sittin` there sellin` turnips on a flatbed truck
Crunchin` on a pork rind when she pulled up
She had to be thinkin` "This is where the rednecks come from"
She had Hollywood written on her license plate
She was lost and lookin` for the interstate
Needin` directions and I was the man for the job

[Chorus]
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
There`s a little country store with an old Coke sign
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Belle for some of her sweet tea
Then a left will take you to the interstate
But a right will bring you right back here to me

I was sittin` there thinkin` `bout her pretty face
Kickin` myself for not catchin` her name
I threw my hat..thought, "You fool, that coulda been love"
I knew my old Ford couldn`t run her down
She probably didn`t like me anyhow
So I watched her disappear into a cloud of dust.

[Chorus]
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
There`s a little country store with an old Coke sign
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Belle for some of her sweet tea
Then a left will take you to the interstate
But a right will bring you right back here to me

Is this Georgia heat playin` tricks on me
Or am I really seein` what I think I see
The woman of my dreams comin` back to me

She went way up yonder past the caution light
Don`t know why, but somethin` felt right
When she stopped in and asked Miss Belle for some of her sweet tea
Mama gave her a big `ol glass and sent her right back here to me
Thank God for good directions and turnip greens.
