A Little Past Little Rock (Album Version)
(jess brown/tony lane/brett jones)
I had to leave my life in dallas
That town will always be you
In every crowd, on every corner
In every face id see you
So with nothin more than a tank of gas
I drove away without lookin back
And i guess thats how i got where i am
And goin anywhere as fast as i can
And im a little past little rock
Further down the line
Too soon to know whats up ahead
Too late to change my mind
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
Im learnin more with every mile just how leavin feels
Its a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
Dont know where ill go or what ill do
Im a little past little rock
But a long way from over you
These headlights on the highway
Disappear into the dark
And if i could have my way
Id go back to where you are
Oh, but i cant turn this thing around
And nothing short of breaking down
Is gonna get me off this road im on
Oh, and im still a far cry from gone
And im a little past little rock
Further down the line
Too soon to know whats up ahead
Too late to change my mind
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
Im learnin more with every mile just how leavin feels
Its a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
Dont know where ill go or what ill do
Im a little past little rock
But a long way from over you
