Long Way Home Lyrics - Little Rock - Hayes Carll

Ramblin' boy you been around 

From Dallas to the underground 

High above and down below 

Places I was scared to go 

You sang it loud in case they heard 

Hangin' on to every word 

Gentle as a lullaby 

Firecrackers in your eyes 

CHORUS: 

And I would give anything 

For one more night to run 

For one last song to sing 

You weren't askin' much at all 

Just catch you when you fall 

On your own, the long way home 

What's that sadness in your smile 

You've been cryin' all the while 

Could you lean upon my shoulder 

I guess you'd die to just get older 

So what are we supposed to do 

Just walk around forever blue 

And all this hurry up and wait 

Was it chance or was it fate? 

CHORUS 

You weren't askin' much at all 

Just catch you when you fall 

On your own, the long way home
