Wish I could just move on and go back to Memphis
Sell your D-28 and get back on the road
Put my life in drive, read between the lines and face it
Learn to leave everything I learned to know
Wish I could grow my hair and be a gypsy
Laugh all night by candlelight and sing my songs
Be too loud and break some ground under my bare feet
Be alright with picking up and moving along
But I know that's wishful thinking
But I know that's daydreaming
I'll do my best, and smooth my dress
Put the dishes in the sink
And put away my wishful thinking
Wish I could learn to shoot a little whiskey
The strongest stuff I've had's communion wine
Have a drink or two and not think of who I'm missing
Let my northern star be a neon light
But I know that's wishful thinking
But I know that's daydreaming
I'll do my best, and smooth my dress
Put the dishes in the sink
And put away my wishful thinking
That picket fence is a prison
I've locked myself inside
It can try to clip my wings
But it cannot take my pride
Before the sun has risen
I'll just take the keys and go
Down the line, in my mind
I'm flyin' down the road
But I know that's wishful thinking
But I know that's daydreaming
I'll do my best, and smooth my dress
Put the dishes in the sink
And put away my wishful thinking
