Eight More Miles Lyrics - Singles - Reckless Kelly

It was a place of contentment 

And the family came by 

For some goodbyes and good lucks 

Then I left 'em behind 

In a rig from the old man 

I watched the sun comin' up 

Through the fog on the windshield 

Through the steam from the cup 

Eight more miles 

Eight more miles 

Eight more miles 

We'll be high 

I can't decide 

If eight more miles 

Is the top of the world 

Or the end of the line 

It's a long stretch of highway 

Drivin' into the wind 

But at the end you'll find the oldest tricks 

In a book that I still haven't read 

Eight more miles 

Eight more miles 

Eight more miles 

We'll be high 

I can't decide 

If eight more miles 

Is the top of the world 

Or the end of the line 

If you go to the end of the road 

You look back all the way, down the line 

You see all those miles, all those miles 

All those miles from so high 

You'll decide 

If all those miles 

To the top of the world 

Was worth the ride 

It was a place of contentment 

And the family dropped by 

For some goodbyes and tough lucks 

Then I left 'em behind
