Hometown Road Lyrics

Cold days, no escape

A ton of miles, I've been trucking all night and day

And the snow fell without a break

Been a long time and you're already so far away

It don't matter anyhow

Why don't you take a little time for yourself

Delays and mistakes

The ninth time that I'm missing independence day

Because some lunatic had to slam his brakes

Been a long time and you're already so far away

I just can't stand myself

I'm gonna spend a little time on the shelf

And if I only knew

That all the bad things in your life catch up with you it's true

It made me a wiser man

And in time you'll win

But until then boy you better get used to losing

Pride can make you a hateful man

Where do I run to now

I believe that I'm hometown bound

Highways and tough takes

White lines that got the better of me yesterday

And they haunted me to Emerald Lake

Been a long time and you're already so far away

Hometown road

Made me who I am

And if I only knew

That all the bad things in your life catch up with you it's true

It made me a wiser man

And in time you'll win

But until then boy you better get used to losing

Pride can make you a hateful man

Young and old

Surely everybody in this life's going to pay their dues no doubt

I was a broken man

It's not news if I only had a dollar for every time I've had the blues no doubt

I'd be a richer man

Where do I run to now

It's finally beat me down

I believe that I'm hometown bound
