Pat Green Long Way to Go (Headed Home) lyrics

You drink one for your memories
You drink one for yourself
You drink one for the family
Last time you saw them was a long time ago

I sing one for the children
You sing one for the miles
You sing one for them pretty green eyes
I'm headed home baby, I got a long way to go

And sing me to sleep sweet city
And let your highway be your lullaby
With nothing in my pocket, no fortune do I know
I'm headed home babe, I got a long way to go

And then you say a little prayer in the morning
You pray for those you left behind
Your heart starts to break as the sun goes down
I'm headed home baby, got a long way to go


You sing me to sleep little darling
And do that little dance for me
Nothing in my pocket, no fortune do I know
I'm headed home mama, I got a long way to go

And I will be there by the morning
And I don't know what makes me leave anyway
Anyway, anyway

And God I miss you little darling
And save that little dance for me
With nothing in my pocket, no fortunes do I know
I'm headed home baby, I got a long way to go

It's good to be home, it's good to be home
I'm headed home baby, I got a long way to go
