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
