I heard the word from Brenda Lee
You were coming home, she said
Cross my heart, I could not believe it
Holy hell, you could've struck me dead
But three cheers for the grapevine
What told me you were coming home
Let's see where the night takes us
Let's see where the night goes
I admit it's been slow going
You pay your bills and still they're young
You know the way with best laid plans
'Til this is me and it's who I am
I make the rounds and I pay my dues
Meet up with friends and I dream 'bout you
It isn't much, but it's still a lot
Sometimes, honey, I still get lost
In those long nights, old cars
Back roads and the boneyards
You drop the pedal like a holy roller
Sheriff of Hell couldn't pull you over
Tough girl from a bad town
Brought up not to stay down
Sweet tea, white lightning
Breaking hearts and not minding
Come on in, it's so good to see you
It's been so long, I know, I know
Let's see where the night takes us
Let's see where the night goes
Last I saw you was a Greyhound wave
You said, "Don't be sad and don't be blue"
LA is not the destination
Still I believe that I must pass through
I saw your face from time to time
But now you're coming home
Let's see where the night takes us
Let's see where the night goes
Old Milan, only know the way I'm feeling
Only the living go to the graveyard grieving
Still we're alive and you're astounding
Feel the pulse of the world pounding
Feel the pull of the American darkness
The mountains, the rivers, the fields at harvest
It's all we have and that's a lot
Come on, honey, let's get lost
In the long nights, old cars
Back roads and the boneyards
You drop the pedal like a holy roller
Sheriff of Hell couldn't pull you over
Tough girl from a bad town
Brought up not to stay down
Sweet tea, white lightning
Breaking hearts and not minding
Come on in, it's so good to see you
It's been so long, I know, I know
Let's see where the night takes us
Let's see where the night goes
In the long nights, old cars
Back roads and the boneyards
You drop the pedal like a holy roller
Sheriff of Hell couldn't pull you over
Tough girl from a bad town
Brought up not to stay down
Sweet tea, white lightning
Breaking hearts and not minding
Come on in, it's so good to see you
It's been so long, I know, I know
Let's see where the night takes us
Let's see where the night goes
A long night, an old car
Back roads and the boneyards
