Take Her Home

Downtown looks like it's New Year's Eve You find some bar you can halfway breathe TouchTunes some old deep-cut Cheap Trick Got your girl singin' every word of it So you bring a couple shots of chilled Patron To the prettiest thing that you ever hit on And somehow she ain't got a boyfriend So you make her laugh all night and then Take her home, fall in love Thank the good Lord up above That He sent one down into your arms And put a chain around your raise-hell heart You try to play it cool walkin' through the door But you're smilin' like a fool 'cause you can't wait for Them down-the-road memories you're bound to make And you will one day take her home Gassed up truck sittin' in the driveway In the back, there's a black and a pink suitcase She can't stop sayin' she's freakin' out You say, "Baby, you ain't got nothin' to worry about" Then you hold her hand, kiss her one time And throw it in drive And take her home, and fall in love Thank the good Lord up above That He sent one down into your arms And put a chain around your raised-hell heart You try to play it cool walkin' through the door But you're smilin' like a fool 'cause you can't wait for Them down-the-road memories you're bound to make And you will one day take her home Take her home Sometimes God draws life like a dream Paints you a seven-pound five-ounce scene In a car seat creepin' down the interstate Two young lovers that are scared to death but still can't wait To take her home, fall in love Thank the good Lord up above That He sent one down into your arms And put a chain around your raise-hell heart You try to play it cool walkin' through the door But you're smilin' like a fool 'cause you can't wait for Them down-the-road memories you're bound to make And you will one day take her home (Take her home, take her home, take her home) Take her home (Take her home, take her home, take her home)
