Hundred Miles

Got a dusty neck and a bent back low

Feel the heat rise up off a red dark road

Up ahead's just more the road not showing

That's a hundred miles that I'm going

It's a long way up and a long way back

Ain't no shortcut, no side track

And there ain't one sign of a shade tree growing

That's a hundred miles that I'm going

That's a hundred miles to get back to you

Been a hundred years and maybe two

See the road stretch out to the old home place

See a glad tear standing on grandma's face

Gonna get some love and a big hello-ing

That's a hundred miles that I'm going

That's a hundred miles to get back to you

Been a hundred years and maybe two

Got a dusty neck and a bent back low

Feel the heat rise up off a red dark road

Up ahead's just more the road not showing

That's a hundred miles that I'm going

That's a hundred miles that I'm going
