I'm pretty sure you have a new girlfriend

It's not as if I don't like you

It just makes me sad whenever I see it

'Cause I like to be gone most of the time

And you like to be home most of the time

If I stay in one place I lose my mind

I'm a pretty impossible lady to be with



Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended

Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended



I had a dream that I had to drive to Madison

To deliver a painting for some silly reason

I took a wrong turn and ended up in Michigan

Paul Baribeau took me to the giant tire swing

Gave me a push and he started singing

I sang along while I was swinging

The sound of our voices made us forget everything

That had ever hurt our feelings



Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended

Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended

…wouldn't be offended



Now I'm home for less than twenty-four hours

That's hardly time to take a shower

Hug my family and take your picture off the wall

Check my email, write a song and make a few phone calls

Before it's time to leave again

I've got one hand on the steering wheel, one waving out the window

If I'm a spinster for the rest of my life

My arms will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights



Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended

Even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended

…wouldn't be offended
