The New Country Showband - Darlin' I'm Home To Stay

The sun's risin' over them backroad hills
Another mornin' where the whiskey's still
And I'm facin' down them ghosts at dawn
Tryin' to right all the wrongs I've done

My daddy's truck she still runs fine
Though the rearview mirror haunts my mind
Every mile is a story told
Of love I lost and deals I sold

But honey it'll be alright
I'll work the fields 'til the stars burn bright
I know I've fallen I've lost my way
But darlin' I'm home to stay

The bottle called and I answered back
Burned more bridges than I can track
Friends turned foes and hearts turned cold
These scars are stories never told

I've knelt in pews prayed on my knees
For sweet redemption and bitter tears
I can't change the man I was back then
But I'll fight to be your man again

But honey it'll be alright
I'll work the fields 'til the stars burn bright
I know I've fallen I've lost my way
But darlin' I'm home to stay
