Long Way to Fall

Wherever I lay my head down tonight
 Won't be as far as we wanna be
 Make my way through June, July, and most of August
 Bathing in a creek, no time to dry
 Money's been coming in thin this year, oh well
 No I ain't as young as I think I am anymore
 I coulda done better this year, and just got no draw
 Pick your head up, twenty-six hours to St. Paul
 It's a long way to fall
 But it's the closest place to the heart
 Fajitas on a homemade grill, ain't no better way
 Whip out the guitars and sing them songs we love to play
 Howlin' at the top of our lungs ain't a lullaby for sleep
 It's the only way to keep from goin' insane from week-to-week
 We sing ooh
 ooh
 Monday's already passed by and Tuesday's close behind
 Pendleton whiskey empty, done lost my mind
 Wake up in the middle of a field, still can't find little brother
 Good Lordie, oh my, he went home with so-and-so's mother
 It's a long way to fall
 But it's the closest place to the heart
 Broke down in the desert, wheels off we'll just leave it
 No breaks for the weary, let's see how long we can stand it
 'Cause it's a long way to fall
 But it's the closest place
 Yeah it's the closest place
 Yeah it's the closest place to the heart
 Wherever I lay my head down tonight
 Won't be as far as we need to be
