Carry Me

[Verse 1: Mike Roe]
I offered a prayer to the queen of the highway
Asked her to set my soul free
And you are no angel, but right now your sweet kiss
Feels like redemption to me
And it don’t matter much where we are
‘Cause I’m right where I wanna be, safe in your arms

[Chorus: Mike Roe]
Carry me
I’m too proud to crawl
Carry me
I’m too tired to run
Carry me
Over Mojave
Under the Navajo sun
Carry me

[Verse 2: Mike Roe]
Remember Raquel Welch in that fur bikini
The dinosaur bird swooping down
Loana the fair one, flailing and screaming
Soon as her feet left the ground
Sometimes there’s nowhere to hide
Just as well to surrender and go for the ride

[Chorus: Mike Roe]
Carry me
(I am too proud to crawl)
I’m too proud to crawl
Carry me
(I am too tired to run)
I’m too tired to run
Carry me
(Carry me over Mojave)
Over Mojave
Under the Navajo sun
Carry me

[Bridge: Derri Daugherty]
Leave me to float on a cloud
If you must set me down
Drop me in the Pacific
I’ll swim to the shore, or I’ll drown
Never mind that now

[Chorus: Mike Roe]
Carry me
(I am too proud to crawl)
I’m too proud to crawl
Carry me
(I am too tired to run)
I’m too tired to run
Carry me
(Carry me over Mojave)
Over Mojave
Under the Navajo sun

[Chorus: Mike Roe]
Carry me
(I am too proud to crawl)
I’m too proud to crawl
Carry me
(I am too tired to run)
I’m too tired to run
Carry me
(Carry me over Mojave)
Over Mojave
Under the Navajo sun
Under the Navajo sun
Carry me
