Take me home

I've been away

I've felt wind whip across the valley

I've seen fire burn a West Coast sky

But it's the little things

humidity and Spanish moss in the trees

I'm thinking 'bout where I was raised tonight

Take me home

I've been away

But that train only goes as far as Austin

And I can't afford a ticket on a plane

Maybe I'm reaching for something that ain't coming

Yeah, you could say my hope is blind

But all you need to fix a dream

is six strings and cheap gasoline

It's hard to see the truth when it's disguised

Take me home

I've been away

I got my thumb in the air, I'm bound for 'Bama

Or I might stop to play for tips in New Orleans

Onе, two, three, four, whoo!

I can hear thunder roar, it's like a whispеr

I can smell the rain coming in the dawn

And I think, "Who am I? What is this?

And what are things I truly miss? "

'Cause when I'm home, I know I'll be long gone

Take me home

I've been away

Take me home

I've been away

Yeah, take me home

I've been away

Take me home

I've been away
