  • (Mm)
    It's been one of those days I don't wanna do twice
    No matter what I say, it doesn't come out right
    I need one of those nights where you slide me close
    'Til we're off the map and you're making me laugh
    I don't care if we ever go home

    So pick me up, get me lost way out
    Down a back two-lane, little George Strait
    Way on up, get me outta my head
    And outta this town, and tell me no matter what
    You'll be by my side, everything gonna be alright
    Make the world go black, how you do me like that
    When I climb up in your truck, just pick me up, mm
    (Pick me up, pick me up)

    We could ride on past every one light street
    Watch a full moon crash on some sunrise wheat
    You can kiss me fast and drive real slow
    That old Chevy made take as long as it takes
    You and Jesus can fix my soul

    So pick me up, get me lost way out
    Down a back two-lane, little George Strait
    Way on up, get me outta my head
    And outta this town, and tell me no matter what
    You'll be by my side, everything gonna be alright
    Make the world go black, how you do me like that
    When I climb up in your truck, just pick me up
    Mm, yeah, just pick me up, ooh

    Get me lost way out
    Down a back two-lane, little George Strait
    Way on up, get me outta my head
    And out this town, and tell me no matter what
    You'll be by my side, everything gonna be alright
    Make the world go black, how you do me like that
    When I climb up in your truck, just pick me up
    Mm, yeah, just pick me up
