Een away much longer than I would of likedGot caught up in that nine to fiveAin’t seen my mama in too many nightsBut I’m coming home, down this roadAnd I drive past the postman who still knows my nameHearin’ those old church bells, seems little has changedAnd all those city lights never made me feel this wayAs I go down this road, oh down this roadGot my apartment on the 17th floorLivin’ off coffee and the promise of moreSeems I’ve forgotten what all this livin’ is forBut I’m coming home, just a small town girlAnd I roll down my window, let the sunshine inSmile at the creek where I had my first kissNo matter where I go there’s always happinessWhen I go down this road, oh down this roadAnd I find that sometimesThis heart cries for homeAnd I know that I’ll be headed back soonTo the fast pace I’ve grown used toBut this time goin’ doesn’t mean leavin’Cause this place will always be with meAnd I get to my driveway see my Daddy thereSeems like he’s grown a few more grey hairsAnd time can’t change the fact that I’m his little girlAs I go down this road, down this road(Whoa and) I step out the car back into my own skinSmile at the house that I grew up inNo matter where I go there’s always happiness whenI go down this road, down this road
