Songwriter: Ryan Tyndell Jeremy Spillman Casey Beathard Eric Church

Producer: Jay Joyce

Flew to California, drove to Alabam’
Hitched to Wichita, caught a ride in a van
Paddled in a boat and peddled on a bike
I’ve walked, I’ve swum, I’ve crawled, I’ve hiked
I’ve hopped a train to Maine and a bus to the Keys
Chased her all night in my dreams
One look at her and it’s easy to see
Wherever she is, is where I wanna be, yeah

Ooh like a moth to a flame
Ooh I hear her call my name
And I’m down, I’m game, I’m in, I’m free
Wherevеr she is that’s where I wanna bе

Yeah, rollin’ with the boys, road trippin’ in a car
Or just kicking back, drinking beer in a bar
Rolling dice on the strip and coming up sevens
In a room full of tens, brother she’s an eleven
Yeah, nowhere Kansas, take my chances
At wherever south of France is
Singing with Elvis, Memphis blue
On a sidewalk whistling to Saskatoon

Ooh like a moth to a flame
Ooh I hear her call my name
And I’m down, I’m game, I’m in, I’m free
Wherever she is that’s where I wanna be

Yeah, rolling through Kansas, Kansas City
Drippin’ like molasses in Mississippi
Yeah, we just rolling thru Kansas, Kansas City baby
Yeah, drippin’ like molasses in Mississippi babe
Yeah, like a moth to a flame
I hear you calling my name

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
