What I Need to Do

I keep tellin' myself, this is the right thing to do I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams, that just weren't comin' true And this old highway, seems to understand Leadin' me on to somewhere, no one knows my name I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up I'm doin' all I can, to get my mind off us What I need to do, is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can till I, see the lights of our hometown And, run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on and on and on Eighty-seven more miles, gets me into Baton Rogue There's a buddy of mine, who said he might find, some work that I can do Maybe head up north, to Knoxville, Tennessee I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep Now the sun's goin down, on my broken heart Lord I gotta get back, before I go too far What I need to do, is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can till I, see the lights of our hometown And run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on, yes I drive on and on and on Knowin' what I need to do Girl, I'm comin' home to you Knowin' what I need to do Girl I'm comin' home to you I'm comin' home to you Knowin' what I need to do
