Down This Road

Been away much longer than I would of liked
 I got caught up in that 95
 Ain't seen my mama in too many nights
 But I'm coming home, down this road
 And I drive past the postman who still knows my name
 Hearin' those old church bells, seems little has changed
 And all those city lights never made me feel this way
 As I go down this road, oh, down this road
 ♪
 Got my apartment on the 17th floor
 Livin' off coffee and the promise of more
 It seems I've forgotten what all this livin' is for
 But I'm coming home, just a small town girl
 And I roll down my window, let the sunshine in
 Smile at the creek where I had my first kiss
 No matter where I go there's always happiness
 When I go down this road, oh, down this road
 And I find that sometimes
 This heart cries for home
 And I know that I'll be headed back soon
 And to the fast pace, I've grown used to
 But this time goin' doesn't mean leavin'
 'Cause this place will always be with me
 And I get to my driveway see my Daddy there
 Seems like he's grown a few more gray hairs
 And time can't change the fact that I'm his little girl
 As I go down this road, oh, down this road
 Oh, and I step out the car back into my own skin
 Smile at the house that I grew up in
 No matter where I go there's always happiness
 When I go down this road, oh, down this road
