Thirty More Miles to San Diego

Dean Martin · Lay Some Happiness On Me: The Reprise Years (Repri [2002]

(Charles Anderson)



Thirty more miles to San Diego

Thirty more miles and I'll be home

Thirty more miles to see my woman

Wonder is she's packed her things and gone

And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long.



Thirty more miles of pushin' this diesel

How can such a short way seems so long

Someday I gonna comin' off that road boy

Find my sweet mama packed and gone

And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long.



Darling it's not that I don't trust ye

I know what it means to be alone

Try your best to find your temptation

Your ever lovin' daddy's coming home.



Thirty more miles to San Diego

Well I'm tired I'm weary to the bone

I have need of my sweet mama's good lovin'

I gotta make up all the time I've been gone

And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long.



And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long.

And it just don't pay to leave a woman alone too long...
