Never comin' down

Caroline was born about a mile from the Mississippi
Kinda like the kudzu, she grew up fast and pretty
A little bit of Memphis, little bit of New York City

All the boys would come around, blocking up her daddy's driveway
But she could spot a come-on coming from a mile away
She hears them callin' but she ain't fallin'

She wants a love that's gona last forever
She wants to stand where her feet don't touch the ground
She's holding out for a piece of heaven
She's gonna fly and she's never comin' down

She's waiting tables at her Uncle Joe's "Bar & Diner"
And it was powerful stuff when he pulled up in a big freight liner
He lit a cigarette and when their eyes met
She knew that one day he'd carry her away

She wants a love that's gona last forever
She wants to stand where her feet don't touch the ground
She's holding out for a piece of heaven
She's gonna fly and she's never comin' down

She wants a love that's gona last forever
She wants to stand where her feet don't touch the ground
She's holding out for a piece of heaven
She's gonna fly and she's never comin' down

She wants a love that's gona last forever
She wants to stand where her feet don't touch the ground
She's holding out for a piece of heaven
She's gonna fly and she's never comin' down
