Long Stretch Of Lonesome Lyrics
Some men are destined to live out their lives where they are
Some love the city and some never stray from the farm, no
I'm always drawn to the echo of some distant trail
And a long stretch of lonesome constantly callin' my name
My spirit is restless and rebellin' burns in my blood
Wide lines and black top they keep my wheels chasin' the sun
I've come to accept all the things I know I'll never change
Like a long stretch of lonesome constantly callin' my name
I swung a hammer till my hands were blistered and sore
I've loaded trucks till my back couldn't take anymore
Hey, I've been in the arms of some places I should have stayed
But a long stretch of lonesome is constantly callin' my name
My spirit is restless and rebellin' burns in my blood
Wide lines and black top they keep my wheels chasin' the sun
I've come to accept all the things I know I'll never change
Like a long stretch of lonesome constantly callin' my name, ohh
Let's go, yeah
At the end of the highway they'll chisel my name in the stone

They'll bury my body but they'll never bury my soul, no
My spirit is restless and rebellin' burns in my blood
Wide lines and black top they keep my wheels chasin' the sun
I've come to accept all the things I know I'll never change
Like a long stretch of lonesome constantly callin' my name
Like a long stretch of lonesome constantly callin' my name
