There's a hitchhiker standing on the side of the road off of exit 104
|
And a forgotten billboard for a all night diner that ain't even there no more
|
|
Three deserted farms just like monuments standing cold and still
|
While a hawk and a lonely state trooped stand guard out on lookout hill
|
|
CHORUS:
|
I'm just following the road home on a trail of memories
|
Just a battle weary native son is there still a home for me
|
When you see me coming don't you turn away
|
'Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay
|
|
And a little understanding on the road home
|
The road home¡¦
|
There's still mud on my boots from across the sea
|
Ain't gonna kick it off
|
Cause it makes me remember what I need to forget
|
When I'm feeling lonesome and lost
|
|
There's a river of scars and it's running deep
|
Right down to my very soul
|
And this battle rages every step of the way
|
While I try not to let it show
|
|
(REPEAT CHORUS)
|
