Can't Go Down That Road
I've been to 609 Penny Lane
So many times I could probably
Drive there with my eyes closed
But I can't go down that road
To your house where I'd pick you up
And we'd ride out to the middle of
Nowhere - took those curves so slow
But I can't go down that road anymore
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
Can't take a left at the pizza shop
Cause' around the bend's that parking lot
Where we first kissed - so Lord knows
I can't go down that road
If I drink too much I'll be wondering
Would you pick up if I checked in
And laid it all out there over the phone
So I can't go down that road
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
I should just ditch this town
Let you get on with your life
I know I ain't in yours
But you're in mine
So I can't go no I can't go no I can't go
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
So many times I could probably
Drive there with my eyes closed
But I can't go down that road
To your house where I'd pick you up
And we'd ride out to the middle of
Nowhere - took those curves so slow
But I can't go down that road anymore
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
Can't take a left at the pizza shop
Cause' around the bend's that parking lot
Where we first kissed - so Lord knows
I can't go down that road
If I drink too much I'll be wondering
Would you pick up if I checked in
And laid it all out there over the phone
So I can't go down that road
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
I should just ditch this town
Let you get on with your life
I know I ain't in yours
But you're in mine
So I can't go no I can't go no I can't go
Cause my heart don't need me kicking up
Old feelings it's been tough enough
Sold that car changed the station
Dodge the bar that we drank in
I don't talk about you when momma asks
Don't go through no old photographs
Even have to take the long way home
Cause' I can't go down that road
