It's bone dry and hot here in Paradise, Arkansas
I've never seen cracks like the cracks in this dirt
It was Uncle Cliff on the phone, but I really think the Lord called
When he said, come on down and I'll put you to work
It hasn't been easy letting you go
But at least I'm finally on that road

'Cause there ain't no blue ninety-two Cavalier
There ain't no moonlight drive in here
And there are days you don't even cross my mind
There ain't no one here I don't want to see
And no one here that don't want to see me
I ain't found it yet, but I'm convinced there's a life
Somewhere between you and Paradise

I've been hangin' around with a girl here in town
Every time I look she's looking better
But I'm still not sure I could take your voice on the phone
So I wrote you this letter
It hasn't been easy letting you go
But I think I'm finally on that road

'Cause there ain't no blue ninety-two Cavalier
There ain't no moonlight drive in here
And there are days you don't even cross my mind
There ain't no one here I don't want to see
And no one here that don't want to see me
I ain't found it yet, but I'm convinced there's a life
Somewhere between you and Paradise

I'm not gonna apologize for the way I just disappeared
Couldn't live there another minute without you
Thank god I'm here

?Cause there ain't no blue ninety-two Cavalier
There ain't no moonlight drive in here
And there are days you don't even cross my mind
There ain't no one here I don't want to see
And no one here that don't want to see me
I ain't found it yet, but I'm convinced there's a life
Somewhere between you and Paradise
