Swing Me Down

Swing me down Ol' Carolina

Swing me back Virginia

Swing the girl who takes you home

Then swing the girl that brings ya

Hey hey hey . . .

I wake up every morning, and I sleep most every night

And I drive but still the highway just keeps bending out of sight

And I ride until the sunset bows its head down to the light

Then I bow down to my partner too and we promenade all night

Swing me down to Ol' Wyoming

Swing me back Dakota

Swing the girl who cleans you up

Then swing the girl that broke ya

Hey hey hey . . .

There's one that likes to Lindy, and there's one that likes to sway

And there's one that likes to lead, and then there's one that likes to stray

And you're crazy if you leave, but just as crazy if you stay

Cause there's something about the way that caller's calling it today

Swing me down Ol' Arkansas

Swing me back-lahoma

Swing the girl who rents your heart

Then swing the girl that owns you

Hey hey hey . . .

So burn me down a dance floor, and blur me down a line

And turn me down the chance before I chance to make you mine

Cause it's the holler of the heart that leads the making of the mind

It's not that I don't love you, I'm in love with your whole kind

Swing me up down Ol' Colorado

Swing me back Nebraska

Swing the girl who tells you what

Then swing the girl that asks ya

Hey hey hey . . .

I can't promise it's a blessing, but I swear it's not a curse

To love to love so much it must just make a heart to burst

Like a dandelion sneeze, or like a cloud that's raining thirst

There's a love that swings around us spreading seeds upon the earth

Swing me down Ol' Illinois

Swing me back Missouri

Swing the girl who boils your blood

Then swing the girl that stirs ya

Hey hey hey . . .
