Home to Houston

歌詞

When I pulled out of Basra they all wished me luck Just like they always did before With a bulletproof screen on the hood of my truck And a Bradley on my back door And I wound her up and shifted her down And I offered this prayer to my lord I said "God get me back home to Houston alive and I won't drive a truck anymore�? Early in the mornin' and I'm rollin' fast Haulin' nine thousand gallons of high test gas Sergeant on the radio hollerin' at me Look out up ahead here come a R.P.G. If I ever get home to Houston alive Then I won't drive a truck anymore I've driven the big rigs for all of my life And my radio handle's "Train�? Down steep mountain roads on the darkest of nights I had ice water in my veins And I come over here ‘cause I just didn't care Now I'm older and wiser by far If I ever get home to Houston alive Then I won't drive a truck anymore Great God A'mighty what was wrong with me I know the money's good but buddy can't you see You can't take it with you and that ain't no lie I don't wanna let ‘em get me I'm too young to die If I ever get home to Houston alive Then I won't drive a truck anymore
