Lyrics
Unless You Go
I was the perfect day to go fishin? in the river Saltville Virginia
So I went on down to Uncle Donnie?s
He said I can?t go, I got too much grass to mow
I said get your fishin? pole cause you?re goin? anyways
Let?s go can?t be wastin? time
Can?t you see that the water?s lookin? fine
It?s been a very long time since we?ve
Seen a day lookin? quite like this
And who knows maybe you?ll catch the one you?ve been dreamin? of
But you ain?t gonna do it here
And you won?t know unless you go
It?s been a very long week
I?ve been workin? overtime and missin? my sleep
Now the weekend?s here and I want to stay home
A buddy calls me up, get ready and get in your truck
Cause Joe?s a throwin? a party tonight
Let?s go can?t be wastin? time
All the women down here?s lookin? fine
It?s been a very long time since he?s
Thrown a party quite like this
And who knows maybe you?ll meet the girl you?ve been dreamin of
But you ain?t gonna meet her there
And you won?t know unless you go
In this life there are chances you take
Live while you can before it?s too late
Let?s go can?t be wastin? time
You don?t wanna get left behind
It just might be awhile till you have a chance quite like this
And who knows maybe you?ll find what you?ve been dreamin? of
But you ain?t gonna find it here
And you won?t know unless you go
