22 Days Too Long

Birmingham to Jackson
Vicksburg to Ruston
girl you nkow I miss you when I'm gone.
Sunshine on your bare feet
your toenails painted hot pink
running through the sprinklers in mama's front lawn

(chorus)
The radio's playing the song you're always singing
and the dawn is breaking that old yellow moon is sinking
I run the truck up in the yard and leave the keys swinging
because 21 days has got me thinking
that 21 days is 22 days too long

Fayetteville to Little Rock
Shreveport to Beaumont
Girl you know I miss you when I'm gone.
Labor Day was a fine mess
you got cake on your sundress
we just laughed it off when you kept it on.

(chorus)
