Verse 1
Well I don’t think that this city
Moves slow enough for me
So I’m gonna leave now
And I ain’t showin’ no Owens
And I know that mama said
That love will always lead ‘ya home
But I’ve been followin’
This lonely road for way too long
Chorus
So won’t you pray for me tonight
I’ve been headin’ down a dark cold road
I’ve been dreamin’ of a porch swing
With some lights
Hopin’ I can find myself back home
Verse 2
Now I’m breakin’ horses
Out in Tishomingo
And every night I’ll have there
And wonder where good men’s dreams go
Most nights I wonder
How far train cars can travel
Or how far a man can go
Before one’s truly unraveled
Chorus
So won’t you pray for me tonight
I’ve been headin’ down a dark cold road
And I’ve been dreamin’ of a porch swing
With some lights
Hopin’ I can find myself back home
Bridge
Don’t jump in so quickly
You’re gonna wound up hurt
She’s with a new man in New York
The last time I heard
And I know that mama said
That love will always lead me home
But I’ve been followin’
A lonely road for way too long
Chorus
So won’t you pray for me tonight
I’ve been headin’ down a dark cold road
I’ve been dreamin’ of a porch swing
With some lights
Hopin’ I can find myself back home
