I Drove Her Out Of My Mind Lyrics - Out Among The Stars - Johnny Cash

She gave me my walking papers 

and ran off with someone new 

Cuz he bought her things 

my wages couldn't buy 

So i turned to ups and downers 

and everything between 

Still i can't get her good lovin' 

off my mind 

Well today I bought a Cadillac 

the kind she's always wanted 

I called and asked her 

if she'd like to ride 

She said this is our last date 

I said that's alright with me 

cause tonight I'm driving her 

out of my mind

Yeah I'll take her on a scenic cruise 

right off of Lookout Mountain 

Cause she said I never took her out 

when she was mine 

She'll see all seven states 

as we drive to the pearly gates 

tonight when I drive her 

out of my mind 

All the papers will read "Lovers leap 

again off Lookout Mountain" 

Cause i wrote a note 

that called it suicide 

But my epitaph will say 

"he killed his pain yesterday 

when he finally drove that woman 

off his mind"

Well now here she comes to greet me 

dressed to kill and so am I 

Hope she asks me if this 

cadillac will fly 

And I know that I'll die laughin' 

when I show her that it will 

when I drive that woman 

right out of my mind 

Hell I'll take her on a scenic cruise 

right off of Lookout Mountain 

Cause she said I never took her out 

when she was mine 

She'll see all seven states 

as we drive to the pearly gates 

tonight when I drive her 

out of my mind 

They'll say Johnny Cash was quite a smash 

down here in Chatanooga 

last night when he drove her 

out of his mind 

Yeah that Cadillac dealer's in for a big surprise too 

99 dollars down, 99 dollars a month 

Yeah it's gonna be just gorgeous 

(ooh to the pearly gates) 

(ooh to the pearly gates) 

(ooh to the pearly gates ...)
