Back To Macon Lyrics

You don't know the depths I know it's the highest highs and the lowest lows

I pine right through the night with the devil on my shoulder

You don't know the pain I feel it's a type and kind the pills can't heal

Or a neck brace, but a suitcase, it might do me some good

Cause I'm hell on getting gone missin mom never calling home

I usually know just what to do and I rarely ever do it

Think it's time I settle down love the folks and hate the town

I usually know just what to do and this time I'm gonna do it

So take me back where Watauga meets Tennessee

Cause South Carolina just ain't for me

I gotta make it back to Macon before I go insane

And I'll pack up my winter coat and suit and tie

Cause the mountains get cold boy and so do I

And daddy taught me dress on up when you're feeling down

Well I give up sinful thrills

Sent my big dreams to the hills

Settled into sober interests

Found me something more

This leather bound's my weapon now

Took good advice, quit Headin South

My vices in the sites, weapon set on shoot to kill

So take me back where Watuga meets Tennessee

Cause South Carolina just ain't for me

I gotta make it back to Macon before I go insane

And I'll pack up my winter coat and suit and tie

Cause the mountains get cold boy and so do I

And daddy taught me dress on up when you're feeling down

I stumbled into Macon soakin wet and hands a shaking

I was greeted by a man running fast and mom was chasing

I asked him would he have back and he wouldn't have it any other way

Saved the new wine in new wine skins dumped the old wine in the clay

So now I'm back where Watuga meets Tennessee

Cause South Carolina just ain't for me

I finally made it back to Macon and I'm never gonna leave

So I'll give away my winter coat and suit and tie

Cause the clothes he gives out you don't have to buy

And who the son sets free, well he's surely free indeed

So take me back where Watuga meets Tennessee

Cause South Carolina just ain't for me

Yeah I gotta make it back to Macon before I go insane

And I'll pack up my winter coat and suit and tie

Cause the mountains get cold boy and so do I

And daddy taught me dress on up when you're feeling down
