Scotty Emerick - I Can't Take You Anywhere Lyrics

You've been a part of my life so very long
It's hard for me to believe sometimes, you're really gone
I tuck your memory away in my special hiding place
Just hoping no one can tell by the look on my face
That you're still in my heart, always on my mind
A part of my everyday

Like just last night, I went out for a bite
An' I tried to have fun with all my might
But even the laughter, it wasn't much of a break
'Cause right in the middle of my strawberry shake
Bobby Joe walked in with a couple of friends
And said "Hey man, have you seen her at all man
"Like, where's she been?"

And it, struck a nerve, and it, hit a vein
You'd think from all the tears I cried
And this broken-hearted pain
I wouldn't have to carry you around with me
But it seems like everywhere I go
There's somebody wants to know
Where you've been, and are you comin' back again?
I swear, I can't take you anywhere

So I left all alone I just headed on home
As I listened to the messages on my telephone
There was one from my sister and one from an old friend
"Hey man, I drove by your house tonight, dude
"But, er, you wasn't in

"Just checkin' up on you boy, I hope you're doin' alright
"Oh, by the way man, I seen her last night"

And it, struck a nerve, and it, hit a vein
You'd think from all the tears I cried
And this broken-hearted pain
I wouldn't have to carry you around with me
But it seems like everywhere I go
There's somebody wants to know
Where you've been, an' are you comin' back again?
I swear, I can't take you anywhere

Oh, baby, I swear, I can't take you anywhere
No, no, no, no, no, I can't take you anywhere, baby
Oh, no no
