Papa's hitting the road again |
|
Takes the show cross country for hire |
|
And as the crowds come and go |
|
Secret agents getting bigger |
|
Mom's holding sister in the chair |
|
Turning pages of photographs |
|
Warm in their memories |
|
Falling asleep by the fire |
|
To the highway where some new cowboys go |
|
Drivers and drifters and rouges |
|
Oh, and a crew's still working |
|
Everybody's cracking jokes |
|
Morning comes so easy |
|
Sharing stories and forgetting time |
|
Take the rest in the look in her eyes |
|
As they go and close time |
|
Oh, Papa's, well, he's driving past the night |
|
And he's working his way to make it home |
|
Oh, the old man gonna be a sight |
|
When the morning come, oh, when the morning comes |
|
To the highway where some old cowboys go |
|
Drivers and drifters and rouges |
|
Well, some drink here, some dance here |
|
Oh, old big boy telling jokes |
|
Mom's holding sister in the chair |
|
Sharing stories and forgetting time |
|
Warm in their memories |
|
Falling asleep by the fire |
|
Papa's he driving past the night |
|
He's working his way to make it home |
|
The old man he's gonna be a sight, yeah |
|
When the morning come, when the morning comes |
|
Papa coming home |
|
Papa coming home |
|
Papa coming home |
