Long Ways From Home
1,2,3,4
1,2,3,4
Well I'm a long ways from home
I took the Greyhound yesterday
In search of that magic thing, that's said to pave my way
Well I've met the spirits, saw the son
I shook that devils hand
He looked me up and down
And he gave a little grin and he said
That you're a long ways from home now boy
I can see it on your face
And that thing that you're looking for
Ain't in no specific place
Well it's the want, it's the need that drives us all
I hope you understand
Cause these words that I speak to you
Come from a magic man
Well it's time to take the next step of this journey that you're on
You'll leave your home and all you know
Just to prove those suckers wrong
And when your names in lights and you're shining high
Don't forget who got you there
Cause you'll always come back to yourself
And this Oklahoma air
My daddy told me
Stay true to who you are
Don't let the darkness
Creep inside your heart
Remember where you came from
And always be on guard
Cause the one mistake, that I made
Was showing my hand of cards
Well I'm a long ways from home
I took the Greyhound yesterday
In search of that magic thing, that's said to pave my way
Well I've met the spirits, saw the son
I shook that devils hand
He looked me up and down
And he gave a little grin and he said
