Next to you, next to me
Next to you, next to me
Next to you, next to me

Baby, next to you, next to me

Ridin' down the road in my pick-up truck

Ya' better be ready 'cause I'm pickin' you up
With a full moon shinin' and a little bit a' luck
We'll run outta gas and maybe get stuck


We can get lost, baby, I don't care
I ain't worried as long as you're there

Ain't no place that I'd rather be
Next to you sittin' next to me


Barbeque chicken in aluminum foil
Just enough money for my gas and oil
Who needs your shrimp and your caviar?

I'd sooner have you just the way you are

Rich people got their money to hold

Mansion on the hill with diamonds and gold
Can't compare as far as I can see
Next to you sittin' next to me

Ain't no place that I'd rather be
Next to you sittin' next to me


Radio playin' our favorite song
Well, I'll change the station if the news comes on
The signal ain't comin' in too strong

Make our own music, honey, all night long

If the Good Lord's willin' when we're old and gray

The kids are grown up and moved away
We'll be rockin' there side by side
With a barbeque chicken and the TV guide


Well, there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Next to you sittin' next to me

Ain't no place that I'd rather be
Next to you sittin' next to me
Ain't no place that I'd rather be

Next to you sittin' next to me

Next to you, next to me

Next to you, next to me
Next to you, next to me
As long as you're next to me, baby


Next to you, oh sittin' next to me
I'd sooner have you just the way you are

Aw, there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Next to you sittin' next to me


And if the Good Lord's willin' when we're old and gray
The kids are grown up and moved away
We'll be rockin' there side by side

With a barbeque chicken and the TV guide
Oh, yeah
There ain't no place that I'd rather be

Next to you sittin' next to me
