It's been a long time since I came around
Been a long time but I'm back in town
And this time I'm not leavin' without you

You taste like whiskey when you kiss me awe
I'd give anything again to be your babydoll
This time I'm not leaving without you

He said, sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we made love the first time
And you said to me

(There's somethin')
Somethin', somethin' about this place
Somethin' 'bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
Somethin', somethin' about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah somethin' about baby you and I

It's been two years since I let you go
I couldn't listen to a joke or rock n' roll
And muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart

On my birthday you sang me Heart of Gold
With a guitar hummin' and no clothes
This time I'm not leaving without you

He said, sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we made love the first time
And you said to me

(There's somethin')
Somethin', somethin' about this place
Somethin' 'bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
Somethin', somethin' about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah somethin' about baby you and I

You and I, you you and I
You you and I, you you and I
You and I, you you and I
Baby I'd rather die, without you and I

(Come on put your drinks up)

We gotta whole lotta money but we still pay rent
'Cause you can't buy a house in heaven
There's only three men that ima serve my whole life
It's my daddy, and Nebraska and Jesus Christ

(There's somethin')
Somethin', somethin' about the chase
(6 whole years)
I'm a New York woman born to run you down
Still want my lipstick all over your face
There's somethin', somethin' about just knowin' when it's right

So put your drinks up for Nebraska, for Nebraska, Nebraska I love ya

You and I, you you and I
Baby I'd rather die
Without you and I
You and I, you you and I
Nebraska I'd rather die, without you and I

It's been a long time since I came around
Been a long time but I'm back in town
And this time I'm not leaving without you
