Long Drive Home Lyrics


I guess what I'll miss
The most will be the mornings
The squeak of a hardwood floor
As you start out your day
And I've loved you darling
From across your kitchen table
And I've loved you darling
From a thousand miles away
I'm still standing here
And I've got reasonable fears
All the houses I've built
Came crashing down around my ears
And we got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
And I'm damned if I do
And I'm damned if you don't
If home is what you're lookin for

Won't you find another business
If lovin songs ain't in your cards
Won't you find another game
Well I'm still here searchin for
The things that I've been missin
Livin with these lowdown fools
And all our stupid shame
Oh and I still dwell and set
On all the things that I regret
You still can't forgive the times
That I wish I could forget
We got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
And I'm damned if I do
And I'm damned if you don't
Well people anymore
They got no stayin power
I love you come by easy
It'll leave you just the same
You want somethin bad
You gotta bleed a little for it
You gotta look it in the eye
You gotta call it out by name
Oh and lovers they march by
But they ain't like you and I
They all wanna be Hank Williams
They don't wanna have to die
And we got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
We got a long drive home
And I'm damned if I do
And I'm damned if you don't

The Turnpike Troubadours, whose name is derived from the bumpy Oklahoma toll-roads and their hard lived folk singing heroes, are proof that isolation can be the mother of originality. Cutting their teeth in roadside dance halls and honky-tonks has made a serious impact on the band’s musical style, which walks the line between Woody Guthrie and Waylon Jennings. “Bossier City,” the band’s debut album, is testament to the small towns in which they were raised. It combines Folk, Country, Cajun, and Bluegrass with stories of longing, humor, tragedy, and general life in rural America.
