What I Need to Do
I keep tellin' myself, this is the right thing to do
I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams, that just weren't comin' true
And this old highway seems to understand
Leadin' me on to somewhere, no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I'm doin' all I can, to get my mind off us
What I need to do, is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I, see the lights of our hometown
And, run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on and on and on
Eighty-seven more miles, gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine, who said he might find, some work that I can do
Maybe head up north, to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun's goin' down, on my broken heart
Lord, I gotta get back, before I go too far
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well, that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, yes, I drive on and on and on
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do
I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams, that just weren't comin' true
And this old highway seems to understand
Leadin' me on to somewhere, no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I'm doin' all I can, to get my mind off us
What I need to do, is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I, see the lights of our hometown
And, run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on and on and on
Eighty-seven more miles, gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine, who said he might find, some work that I can do
Maybe head up north, to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun's goin' down, on my broken heart
Lord, I gotta get back, before I go too far
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well, that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, yes, I drive on and on and on
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do
