Eight More Miles Lyrics

It was a place of contentment
And the family came by
For some goodbyes and good lucks
Then I left 'em behindIn a rig from the old man
I watched the sun comin' up
Through the fog on the windshield
Through the steam from the cupEight more miles
Eight more miles
Eight more miles
We'll be highI can't decide
If eight more miles
Is the top of the world
Or the end of the lineIt's a long stretch of highway
Drivin' into the wind
But at the end you'll find the oldest tricks
In a book that I still haven't readEight more miles
Eight more miles
Eight more miles

We'll be highI can't decide
If eight more miles
Is the top of the world
Or the end of the lineIf you go to the end of the road
You look back all the way, down the line
You see all those miles, all those miles
All those miles from so highYou'll decide
If all those miles
To the top of the world
Was worth the rideIt was a place of contentment
And the family dropped by
For some goodbyes and tough lucks
Then I left 'em behind
