Jamie O'Hara Miles of Heartache lyrics

Started out in Birmingham
With Jim Beam in a Pepsi can
Just to help me cut the pain
Spent the night in mobile
Sleepin' on the steerin' wheel
Woke up with the sun callin' your name

And I got miles of heartache yet to go
Never knew forgettin' you would go so slow
The memory of you and me's a long and windin' road
And I got miles of heartache yet to go

Headed down to New Orleans
Fell into a Cajun dream
Damned if I recall her name
Burned it up on Bourbon Street
Woke up standin' on my feet
Headed out that mornin' in the rain

And I got miles of heartache yet to go
I never knew forgettin' you would go so slow
The memory of you and me's a long and windin' road
And I got miles of heartache yet to go

Drifted down to Mexico

And figured I'd just lay low
Saturday night they threw me into jail
Blew my last twenty five
In some old Tiajuana dive
Ain't got no dinero for my bail

And I got

Tomorrow they will set me free
But free is what I'll never be
Long as memories remain
New Orleans or Mexico
It don't matter where I go
Your love is like a ball and chain

And I got miles of heartache yet to go
I never knew forgettin' you would go so slow
The memory of you and me's a long and windin' road
And I've got miles of heartache yet to go

Yes, I've got miles of heartache yet to go
