Long Way from Home

Bought a one way ticket
On a train
Beadin' out of this one horse town
Ain't too sure where I'm goin'
I see the faces
Of the children living out on the streets
Lord knows I'm thankful
I had my family to care for me
'Cause everyday now
This road gets longer on by the mile, my life rolls onward
My soul grows tired
Nowhere to run to Lord
Nowhere to hide
Ain't got no money
Man, I gave up on pride
So where are you going, tell me
I'd like to know
Cause I'm a long way away from home
Lonely feelings
Lord, they lay by my side
Most every night, I don't know why
They seem to haunt me
I feel the traces
Of the memories etched upon my soul
As my nights grow longer
And my days grow old
Nowhere to run to lord
Nowhere to hide
Ain't got no money
Man, I gave up on pride
So where are you going, tell me
I'd like to know
'Cause I'm a long way away from home
Lord, I'm a long way from home
