Another Long Story
Grew up in the same town
it was like she was born for me
I was turnin' seventeen years old
when she was just turnin' sixteen
our parents said we went to the same church
I probably kissed her in the nursery
but when you ask me what she's doin' now
I say, man, it's just another long story
drivin' out of nashville
I was bright-lighted by all the big trucks
so i got on the cb to explain,
it's just that i'm loaded down with all my stuff
made friends with some dude from arkansas
pulled over at a truckstop to have some coffee
and when he asked me what i was runnin' from
I said, man, it's just another long story
he said, man, i know just what you're talkin' about
the words comin' out of your mouth,
you've heard too many times before,
so don't waste your words on a stranger
you better conserve your energy,
'cause it sounds like you're gonna need it,
besides, it's probably just another long story
drivin' out of L.A.
I'd decided to make a clean break
go where the girls talk with a drawl
and the real men still eat steak
got a letter from some dude somewhere in america
he said, hey man, i love your music, it's a little rock
and a little country, and how come the bigwigs don't pusha you betta
and i said, it's just another long story
long story
long story
it was like she was born for me
I was turnin' seventeen years old
when she was just turnin' sixteen
our parents said we went to the same church
I probably kissed her in the nursery
but when you ask me what she's doin' now
I say, man, it's just another long story
drivin' out of nashville
I was bright-lighted by all the big trucks
so i got on the cb to explain,
it's just that i'm loaded down with all my stuff

I said, man, it's just another long story
he said, man, i know just what you're talkin' about

and i said, it's just another long story
long story
