Won't Be Long Lyrics

WON’T BE LONG
Ted Russell Kamp / Steve Carlson
Just past the border I broke down
in a faceless kind of town
by a one room weathered church
that God had not blown down.
As I stumbled form my truck
and I laid my body down
on the stairs cold and creaking
I started thinking
how I’m going to say
Ch
That it won’t be long
That it won’t be long
Today will be my yesterday ‘cause tomorrow I’ll be gone
I’ll be long, long gone

I’ll be long, long gone
Today will be my yesterday, and yesterdays don’t ever last that long
And on the steps where I broke down
I couldn’t help but look around
at the knots in the old grey wood
and the dead grass on the ground.
The ghost town air was cold and still
and not a soul to make a sound
but the lonely kid inside
who can’t decide just
how I’m going to say
Ch
Bridge and solo
And now I’m going to say
Ch
