Intro: I keep telling my self this is the right thing to do I was wasting her time waitin on dreams that just werent comming true And this ole highway seems to understand leading me off to somewhere where no one knows my name got the windows rolled down got the radio up doing all I can to get my mind of us Chorus: what I need to do is turn this car around drive as fast as I can until I see the lights of our hometown and run to her take her in my arms let her see how sorry I am well it shouldnt be soo hard but I drive...... on... and on... and on.... (repeat intro) 87 more miles brings me into Baton Rouge Theres a buddy of mine that says he might find some work that I can do Or maybe head up north to Knoxville Tennesee I know my baby sister's got a couch where I can sleep Now the suns going down on my broken heart. Lord I gotta get back before I go too far (repeat chorus) Knowing what I need to do.... Girl Im comming home to you.... Knowing what I need to do Knowing what I need to do
