Three Thousand Miles

Verse 1
The air-conditioning just went out
It’s 102 degrees
Got my windows down from town to town
But I can’t catch a breeze
I just ran through a toll booth
And I’m almost out of change
The mile markers keep telling me
You’re so far away

Chorus
Three thousand miles can’t keep me away from you babe
I won’t stop until I’m looking in your eyes
I’ve been running up and down these lonesome highways
Staring at these white lines
Holding you in mind
But I’m still three thousand miles from Caroline

Verse 2
Had a hundred cups of coffee
The strongest ever brewed
In the middle of nowhere
GPS ain’t got a clue
The police just told me I can’t go ninety-five
But he don’t know what’s waiting when I pull into your drive

Bridge
From Modesto to Amarillo
I’ll make Memphis before sunrise
Gotta beat the traffic in Atlanta
A few more miles till I see my Caroline
