They say Montana has a real big sky And the Grand Canyon is deep and wide There's a whole lot of livin that I wanna do But I'd rather see the world from your point of view I didn't go to Memphis to see the king Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans I could've found someone to give my love to But I've been waiting for you I've got a little money stashed away Just sitten on ready for a rainy day Anticipating escaping with you Doin all the crazy things that I didn't do I didn't go to Memphis to see the king Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans I could've found someone to give my love to But I've been waiting for you Oh, no I didn't wanna settle for just settin down I was lookin for the right one baby And that's what I've found I didn't go to Memphis to see the king Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans I could've found someone to give my love to But I've been waiting for you I didn't go to Memphis to see the king Or ride the Mississippi down to New Orleans I could've found someone to give my love to But I've been waiting for you I've been waiting for you
