When I get four hundred dollars, I'm going to see Melinda
Cause I've been working hard and saving for a ticket to Melinda
And I just don't care what you've got to say
Cause I'm getting up in the morning, and I'm off to see Melinda
I'm off
I would give the moon and sun, to be there with Melinda
The earth and all the sky, just to touch Melinda
And I just don't care if you're going with me
Cause I'm getting up in the morning, and I'm going to see Melinda
Yeah I'm going
Yes I'm through with Clay County
There ain't nothing there for me
Ain't nobody in Clay County
Ever did a thing for me
In one dark night I'm gonna crawl through a window
Yes I'm getting up this morning, and I'm going to see Melinda
And I'm going
Yes I'm through with Clay County
There ain't nothing there for me
Ain't nobody in clay county
Ever did nothing for me
In one dark night I'm gonna crawl through a window
Yeah I'm getting up in the morning and I'm going to see Melinda
And I'm going to see Melinda
