I’M NOT SURE YOU SAW IT / WHEN THE SKY FILLED WITH COMETS / AND LIT YOU UP THE OTHER NIGHT / YOU GONE UP TO PORTLAND (MAINE) / I WAS HOME SMILING AT THE CHILDREN / TUCKING ‘EM IN FOR A LONG RIDE / MOM’S AT THE BAR, DAD’S OUT AT THE BAR / AND THEY SITTING IN DIFFERENT BOOTHS / I’D LEAVE IF I COULD BUT A HORSE NEEDS A HOOVE / MAN, I NEED ROOM TO BREATHE / WE BEEN DRIVING ALL AROUND SINCE YOU LEFT TOWN / WITH NO SEAT BELTS ON THE BENCH / WE GO HILL HOPPING BACK ROADS / DRINK AT THE FISHING HOLE / AND LEAVE NO EVIDENCE / BACK HOME WE PICKIN’ MARTINS / SINGING WITH STURGILL / AND DANCING UNTIL THE SUN GOES DOWN / WE TRY AND SLEEP OUT IN THE TRUCK BED / LORD, BUT WE LAUGHING TILL WE CRYING / BELOW THE SAME STARS AS YOU IN THE SKY / YEAH, THE GARDEN’S COMING ALONG / AND WE BEEN WORKING ON SOME SONGS / AND FEELING EASY AND FREE / A FEW CHORDS AND THE TRUTH / LIKE BALLS THROUGH HOOPS / DO YOU EVER WRITE ABOUT ME? / THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SONGS ALONG THE WAY
