Lyrics

Settle Down

I wanna settle down
I wanna settle down
Won't you settle down with me?
Settle down

We can settle at a table
A table for two
Won't you wine and dine with me?
Settle down

I wanna raise a child
I wanna raise a child
Won't you raise a child with me?
Raise a child

We'll call her Nebraska
Nebraska Jones
She'll have your nose
The eyes... So you'll know

I wanna settle down
I wanna stare all down
Won't you settle down with me?
Stare all down

Run from Angela Vickers
I saw her with you
Monday morning
Small talking on the avenue

She's got a fancy car
She wants to take you far
From the city lights and sounds
Deep into the dark

Star so light
Star so bright
First star I see tonight

Star so light
Star so bright
Keep him by my side

I wanna settle down
I wanna settle down
Baby, there's no need to run
I'll love you well

I wanna settle down
It's time to bring you down
On just one knee, for now
Let's make our vows

(Star so light)
(Star so bright)
(First star I see tonight)

Star so light
Star so bright
First star I see tonight

Star so light
Star so bright
Keep him by my side
