Make it stick. Make it so.
They thought they had you pegged but really
they don't know.
Take drag. Then take the reins.
Follow that feeling going through you like a
mad bullet train.
You're a -- mad bullet train.
It's a long road
And the days are cold
looking through the shadows
in a town in Colorado
for some sunshine for your soul
Yea it's a long road
on the way back home
but you can feel it when you're front porch swingin'
in the sunshine of your soul.
In the sunshine of your soul.
She left that house
of burns and stains.
And promised her self a solemn promise
that she'd never go back again.
Stepped outside. Breathed it in.
First night's lesson is you make your own blessings
and the winos don't drink gin.
No the winos don't drink gin.
They drink Mowhawk and some smoke the rocks they got
dodgin' cops alot to keep that stovepipe hot.
Some just try to beat the clock and patch the holes in their socks.
Meanwhile, she's stopped in spots but don't care.
Get a truck ticket in a minute with her thumb in the air.
Fully aware that there's a side of life that's not fair.
Still she goes on, because you gotta get somewhere:
little front porch swingin' with the people who care
somewhere at the end of the road where the hearts are all gold.
She
can feel the breeze
and like the leaves
it seems she's falling
But deep
beneath the grief
that no one sees
she's feels her calling.
Feels it calling.
Have a smoke. Put it out.
Crush it underfoot and put some tape over its mouth.
Catch a ride. Then make a joke.
The laughter's right and the feeling captivating when you're out on the open road
in the sunshine of your soul.
It's a long road
And the days are cold
looking through the shadows
of a town in Colorado
for some sunshine for your soul
Yea it's a long road
on the way back home
but you can feel it when you're front porch swingin'
in the sunshine of your soul.
It's a long road
And the nights are cold
sittin' in the shadows
in a town in Colorado
with no sunshine for your soul
Yea it's a long road
on the way back home
but you can feel it when you're front porch swingin'
in the sunshine of your soul.
In the sunshine of your soul
In the sunshine of your soul
It's a long road.
