作詞：Bill Luther & Tom Damphier   作曲：Bill Luther & Tom Damphier I keep telling myself this is the right thing to do I was wasting her time, waiting on dreams that just weren't coming true And this old highway seems to understand Leading me on to somewhere that no one knows my name I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up I'm doing all that I can to get my mind off us What I need to do is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown And run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on, and on, and on Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep Now the sun's going down on my broken heart Lord, I got to get back before I get too far What I need to do is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown And run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on Yes I drive on, and on, and on Knowing what I need to do Girl, I'm coming home to you Knowing what I need to do Girl I'm coming home to you
