Smiling Eyes (off To Chicago) Lyrics


I Tried To Save The World Once Smiling Eyes (off To Chicago)


Jumped out of the van, my guitar in hand
Met smiling eyes with this girl in line
'Cause I got a thing for girls in skinny jeans,
And she's got a thing for a guy with a 6 string
She played a good game of hard to get
But she was no match for my southern accent
She pulled me close and kissed my lips and said,
"you'll write a song about this."

My boys are gonna hear about this one in the van tomorrow
On the way to chicago
I kissed a pretty little lady from the 313 and she's taken,
Oh yeah she's taken a hold of me
I'm singing her to sleep, it's the sweetest thing
She said "take me back to sweet home alabama"
But she's got school and I've got a job to do,
So I'm off to chicago

The boys can take the van, I'll just take your hand
Between you and me we've got all that we need
'Cause I've got a thing for girls that are out of my league
And she's got a thing for guys with big city dreams
We made vows with rings from quarter machines
"I swear I'll never leave you... 'til the sunrise"
With a crooked smile I bit my lip and said,
"I swear I'll never forget this"

My boys are gonna hear about this one in the van tomorrow
On the way to chicago
I kissed a pretty little lady from the 313 and she's taken,
Oh yeah she's taken a hold of me
I'm singing her to sleep, it's the sweetest thing
She said, "take me back to sweet home alabama"
But she's got school and I've got a job to do
So I'm off to chicago

I'll get in the van but I'll be looking back
This is so much harder than we ever imagined
I picked you flowers to remember me by,
Never forget me and they'll never die

My boys are gonna hear about this one in the van right now
On the way to chicago
