Lately baby we've been lettin' pride get in the way
Sayin' things that we don't mean, meanin' what we don't say
Things have been so crazy that we lost our peace of mind
But I think I know the perfect place to leave it all behind
Chorus:
They got sunshine every mornin'
They got moonshine every night
They got sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
We're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have a care
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in the middle of nowhere
I said, the middle of nowhere
Life can get away sometimes before you know it's gone
That solid ground can turn out to be sand you're standin' on
We need a little time to find the fire we once knew
Girl, and paradise is waitin' right down Highway 62
Repeat Chorus
Just you and me, the sky, the lakes and trees
The middle of nowhere
No baby, we won't want to leave - no
That sunshine every mornin'
That moonshine every night
That sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
Yeah, we're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have no cares
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in
That sunshine every mornin'
That moonshine every night
That sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
We're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have a care
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in the middle of no, no, no, nowhere
Baby, get in the car
You know it ain't far
To the middle of nowhere
Sayin' things that we don't mean, meanin' what we don't say
Things have been so crazy that we lost our peace of mind
But I think I know the perfect place to leave it all behind
Chorus:
They got sunshine every mornin'
They got moonshine every night
They got sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
We're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have a care
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in the middle of nowhere
I said, the middle of nowhere
Life can get away sometimes before you know it's gone
That solid ground can turn out to be sand you're standin' on
We need a little time to find the fire we once knew
Girl, and paradise is waitin' right down Highway 62
Repeat Chorus
Just you and me, the sky, the lakes and trees
The middle of nowhere
No baby, we won't want to leave - no
That sunshine every mornin'
That moonshine every night
That sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
Yeah, we're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have no cares
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in
That sunshine every mornin'
That moonshine every night
That sweet love flowin' like a river off the mountainside
We're gonna kiss a little, fish a little
Baby, we won't have a care
Plant our feet in the soft green grass
Smack dab, way out, back in the middle of no, no, no, nowhere
Baby, get in the car
You know it ain't far
To the middle of nowhere
