Missing Missouri - The Hit Co.

I love my life, love my husband

Without those kid’s, man I ain’t nothing

I love my fans, love my band

Love my little Tennessee piece of land

Sometimes my life can get so hectic

Out of the blue when I least expect it

Somewhere between the hubbub and the drama

I get to thinking bout mama and

I’m caught up in missing Missouri

'Cause I wanna be with my family

Instead of stuck out on this road I’m on

Every time my bus wheels hit the bootheel

There’s no limelight and I’m alright

'Cause I’m almost home

Where they love me, where they know me

Where they show me back in Missouri

The road just ain’t no place for whiners

It’s motels, truck stops, all night diners

Hoping that your song’ll sell

And having to smile when it ain’t doing well

So when everything just gets to much

And I feel like I’m giving up

I close my eyes and say a little prayer

And its like I’m there and

Late summer nights sneaking out the window

Me and the girls driving down the back roads

Tobacco fields and bumblebees

And the cardinals playing on TV
