Long Way To Go (Headed Home) - Pat Green

You drink one for your memories

You drink one for yourself

You drink one for your family

Last time you saw them was a long time ago

I sing one for the children

You sing one for the miles

You sing one for them pretty green eyes

I’m headed home baby — I got a long way to go

And sing me to sleep sweet city

And let your highway be your lullaby

With nothing in my pocket

No fortune do I know

I’m headed home baby — I got a long way to go

Well you say a little prayer in the morning

You pray for those you left behind

Your heart starts to break as the sun goes down

I’m headed home baby — I got a long way to go

Sing me to sleep little darling

And do that little dance for me

Nothing in my pocket

No fortune do I know

I’m headed home mama — I got a long way to go

I will be there by the morning

And I don’t know what makes me leave anyway, anyway, anyway

And God I miss you little darling

And save that little dance for me

With nothing in my pocket

No fortunes do I know

I’m headed home baby — I got a long way to go

It’s good to be home

It’s good to be home

I’m headed home baby — I got a long way to go
