about

Working night shift is never easy but doing 12 hour night shifts in a taxi? You gotta be a little bit crazy. All you can think about is the woman you've sacrificed and left behind because you didn't feel worthy, coupled with the burning desire to claw yourself up outta the poverty you've found yourself in and prove your love once again.

lyrics

There's a place full of sweet, full of sweet sweet memories,
Thats the place where I long to be.
Dusty clothes, dirty hair and a guitar to comfort me,
I've been on this road much too long.

Take me back to my Sweet Cherokee
Take me back to my one and only,

Can't believe I'm alive but it's so hard to survive,
I've been driving all night and sleeping through the day.
Well she knows I never would treat her less than good
I just can't get her off my mind...

Take me back to my Sweet Cherokee
Take me back to my one and only,
Take me back to my Sweet Cherokee
She's the only one I want to see

Twenty-four hour motels, satchel flavoured coffee
with nothin' left to show, no money
not a care in the world,
but I miss my Cherokee
Take my from this misery,
The sooner I get there; the better I'll be

There's a place full of sweet, full of sweet sweet memories,
Thats the place where I long to be.
Well she knows I never would treat her less than good
I just can't get her off my mind...

Take me back to my Sweet Cherokee
Take me back to my one and only,
Take me back to my Sweet Cherokee
She's the only one I want to see

Take me back, take me back,
Take me back, take me back,
Take me back, take me back,

Take me back, take me back,
Take me back, take me back,
Oh take me back...
