[Verse 1] My boots know this gravel Like the back of my hand Three towns and a river Between now and my land Mama’s porch light’s waiting Like a coin in the dark I’ve been gone too long now With your name in my heart [Pre-Chorus] I can smell that red clay Rising after rain Every mile I’m closer Every mile you stay [Chorus] Take me home, take me home To the screen door slam Take me home, take me home Where my old dog ran I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone But I’m coming clean Take me home, take me home Let me back in [Verse 2] At the diner in Beaumont I burned my last ten Got a map on the dashboard And a crack in the wind A truck stop preacher told me Boy, don’t lose your way So I bought me a coffee And I hit the highway [Pre-Chorus] Now the fields are unfolding Like a promise made And I swear I can hear you Calling down the lane [Chorus] Take me home, take me home To the screen door slam Take me home, take me home Where my old dog ran I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone But I’m coming clean Take me home, take me home Let me back in [Bridge] When the bridge lights faded And the bridge became the creek I saw my father’s lantern Shaking just for me One more bend, one more mile One more breath, one more song I was never lost, darling I was just too long gone [Chorus] Take me home, take me home To the screen door slam Take me home, take me home Where my old dog ran I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone But I’m coming clean Take me home, take me home Let me back in [Outro] Yeah, let me back in Let me back in
