Bakersfield
Copyright © 2004 Jeff Williams
Tuning: DADEBE (Capo 2)

we drove all day in the hot sun
holding hands in the truck
a little farther till we get there
a little farther till we get there

past the corn fields and the rest stops
a tractor on the road
see the cotton fields before us
the cotton fields unfolding

I remember coming through here
long before I knew you
found a bar and a cheap diner
filled the car up and got out of here

dusty windows we look through them
that old house where you grew up
the long street with the big trees
all the children have all grown up

and the whole town looks so different
than when you were a little girl
the whole town looks so different
than when you were a little girl, little girl, little girl

there's your mother with a camera
seems like I've been here before
seems familiar like I live here
familiar like I live here

we'll go back to where we live now
it's a long ride back home
she'll tell us come back real soon
she says come back real soon

and the whole town looks so different
than when you were a little girl
the whole town looks so different
than when you were a little girl, little girl, little girl
