Long Way to Fall

Wherever I lay my head down tonight Won't be as far as we wanna be Make my way through June, July, and most of August Bathing in a creek, no time to dry Money's been coming in thin this year, oh well No I ain't as young as I think I am anymore I coulda done better this year, and just got no draw Pick your head up, twenty-six hours to St. Paul It's a long way to fall But it's the closest place to the heart Fajitas on a homemade grill, ain't no better way Whip out the guitars and sing them songs we love to play Howlin' at the top of our lungs ain't a lullaby for sleep It's the only way to keep from goin' insane from week-to-week We sing ooh Ooh Monday's already passed by and Tuesday's close behind Pendleton whiskey empty, done lost my mind Wake up in the middle of a field, still can't find little brother Good Lordie, oh my, he went home with so-and-so's mother It's a long way to fall But it's the closest place to the heart Broke down in the desert, wheels off we'll just leave it No breaks for the weary, let's see how long we can stand it 'Cause it's a long way to fall But it's the closest place Yeah it's the closest place Yeah it's the closest place to the heart Wherever I lay my head down tonight Won't be as far as we need to be
