[Chorus:]
|
It's a long, hard road I'm traveling on
|
Seems forever I've been gone
|
Yeah, it's a long hard road I'm traveling on
|
Lord I need to find my way back home
|
|
I hear the voice my sweet momma called me
|
Telling me to change my ways
|
In my mind, I smell the dogwood blooming
|
Takes me back to yesterday
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I left behind the person that I once was
|
I changed for good and some for bad
|
I've wasted days and nights on love forgotten
|
I've traded happiness for sad
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I've felt the hurt of a broken heart inside me
|
I've felt the joy of love unchained
|
I've seen the rain wash away a mountain
|
Like tears have washed away my pain
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I've watched some loved ones dear to my heart dying
|
I've heard a newborn baby's cry
|
I've walked a path of glory and of darkness
|
I've felt the guilt of a senseless life
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Drank to forget and I've drank to remember
|
And I've drank for love and I've drank for hate
|
I've danced alone with a full moon up above me
|
Lighting the way to heaven's gate
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I've felt the love of Jesus shining on me
|
I've felt the devil's wicked ways
|
Prayed for forgiveness, prayed for redemption
|
Prayed just to make it through the day
|
|
[Chorus]
|
