4th Of July

Alone with the morning burning red

On the canvas in my head, painting a picture of you

And me driving across country, in a dusty old RV

Just the road and its majesty

And I'm looking at you with the world in the rear view

You were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat

Looking at me, telling me you love me

And your happy to be with me on the 4th of July

We sang 'Stranglehold' to the stereo

Couldn't take no more of that rock 'n' roll

So we put on a little George Jones and just sang along

Those white lines get drawn into the sun

If you ain't got no one to keep you hanging on

And there you were like a queen in your nightgown

Riding shotgun from town to town

Staking a claim on the world we found

And I'm singing to you, you're singing to me

You were out of the blue to a boy like me

You were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat

Looking at me, telling me you love me

And your happy to be with me on the 4th of July

We sang 'Stranglehold' to the stereo

Couldn't take no more of that rock 'n' roll

So we put on a little George Jones and just sang along, sang along

And I'm looking for you in the silence that we share

You were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat

Looking at me, telling me you love me

And your happy to be with me on the 4th of July

We sang 'Stranglehold' to the stereo

Couldn't take no more of that rock 'n' roll

So we put on a little George Jones and just sang along, sang along
