True North

(My true north)

Some days the only needle
That I'm movin' is the one that's on the dash, and
Sometimes, I'm a diesel
Runnin' on empty on a long stretch of black
East, west, left, up, down, right
Don't change where I point my headlights

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive y'all come back on the door
My stuck in time, my true north
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down south to my true north
(My true north)

My heart's got a compass
That must be a little busted, 'cause it's
Stuck on a map dot, wrap around, supper's hot
Knows where I'm goin' and where I've been
But I got no objection
That it only points in one direction

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive, y'all come back on the door
My stuck in time, my true North
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down south to my true north, yeah
Oh-oh, oh, to my true North

East, west, left, up, down, right
Good, bad or just alright
I'll always point my headlights

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive, Go Dawgs on the door
My stuck in time, my true North
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down south to my true north, yeah
Ooh, to my true north
