Coast to Coast

Honey, it's been a long road out

Honey, it's further home

Tell me can I stop by?

Can't stand so many hours alone

The porch will be dark and cold

And you'll slumber within

But honey, could you make your sweet tea?

Turn the porch light on again

I'm hurtin' from the livin'

I'm burnin' up my years

The world is faster spinnin'

And I'm weighed down with cares

I wanna smell your perfume

As the dew of tide rolls in

The mornin' light on borderlines

You cross my mind now and then

Haulin' heavy loads

From coast to coast

Makes it tough to keep a good woman's love

At times I want to

Throw away the keys

All I ever seem to do is leave

Somewhere around the last coffee

A mirage in the rain

I thought I saw you dancin'

Through the cracked windscreen

I wanna sell this big old truck

Buy an old F-150

And anytime I leave the house

I'm gonna have you with me, girl (Haulin')

Haulin' heavy loads

From coast to coast

Makes it tough to keep a good woman's love

At times I want to

Throw away the keys, yeah

All I ever seem to do is leave

Heavy load on my trailer

Heavy load on my heart

Never meant to fail her

The roads just kept us apart

On the dirt road to home, yeah

My truck free of its load

My heart still heavy

And the porch light dark and cold

Honey, it's been a long road out

Honey, it's further home
