Sittin' in the back where the chairs are stacked
I'm warmin' up the stove
Thinkin' about my old Ford stomped to the floorboard
Chuggin' out of Pleasant Grove
Blazin' off to California
Like a dust devil dancin' on a dime
Guess I was a red-eyed backslider
Now I'm tired of the ride
But once a drifter, always a drifter
Once a drifter, always a drifter
Mama standing in the driveway
Too choked to say goodbye
I turned my collar and turned my back
Went a mile and started to cry
Johnny, Donny Brooks and me
Singing songs to pass the time
Long befor the war came
Long before the star game
Long before I came to find ...
So here I am, uncertain again
Headed for no place to go
Settlin' down, leavin' town
Family man, ramblin' man
I just pretend it's part of the show
One too many childhood movies
With strangers riding off in the sun
Taught me you can't talk it out
When you feel like walkin' out
The sequel's already begun
I'm warmin' up the stove
Thinkin' about my old Ford stomped to the floorboard
Chuggin' out of Pleasant Grove
Blazin' off to California
Like a dust devil dancin' on a dime
Guess I was a red-eyed backslider
Now I'm tired of the ride
But once a drifter, always a drifter
Once a drifter, always a drifter
Mama standing in the driveway
Too choked to say goodbye
I turned my collar and turned my back
Went a mile and started to cry
Johnny, Donny Brooks and me
Singing songs to pass the time
Long befor the war came
Long before the star game
Long before I came to find ...
So here I am, uncertain again
Headed for no place to go
Settlin' down, leavin' town
Family man, ramblin' man
I just pretend it's part of the show
One too many childhood movies
With strangers riding off in the sun
Taught me you can't talk it out
When you feel like walkin' out
The sequel's already begun
