Barn Lyrics

Standin' in line at the liquor store, it's rainin' in July

The man at the counter says that his ditches are runnin' dry

His cattle gone to finish the range ain't got no feed

Why we bein' pushed to a side when the middle seemed just fine

Can't build a house right now, cause the workers are too hard to find

And l traffic's backed up to East Fork light

Sirens just another sound at night

I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

'Cause I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

A sinner, that's for sure. A bad man, I am not

Yet all the sinning led me to a man I hadn't thought

I was meant to be or cared for in the end

Things are much different than they were back then

I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

'Cause I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

I can see the sirens fading light

And I can't even get home safe tonight

I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

'Cause I've been workin' for tomorrow for most of my life, seems like

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

Ohhhh the long way around the barn

Ohhhh the long way around the barn
