Road Ain’t No Place

[Verse 1]

Been on the road chasing white lines

Passing by oaks, maples, and pines

Air thick with grasses overgrown

Thoughts of holding my wife pulling me home

Gotta keep this engine humming

Half a year gone

Running these horses under this Chevy hood

’Til I pull up to my neighborhood

[Chorus]

The road ain’t no place when you have a wife

It’s the loneliest time in a man’s life

A man belongs in his own home

The road keeps you yearning when you’re all alone

[Verse 2]

Red lights, green lights, stopping and going

The miles behind me quickly growing Chorus

The road ain’t no place when you have a wife

It’s the loneliest time in a man’s life

A man belongs in his own home

The road keeps you yearning when you’re all alone

[Chorus]

The road ain’t no place when you have a wife

It’s the loneliest time in a man’s life

A man belongs in his own home

The road keeps you yearning when you’re all alone

[Verse 3]

Stopping at diners morning, noon, and night

Overcooked food and coffee, white-line fever I fight

Nothing tastes as good as the burgers you make

Another night without you is more than I can take

Don’t ever want to leave your side

Even for a short thirty-minute ride

[Final Chorus]

The road was no place without my wife

Home at last — this is my life

Don’t need another night alone

I’m back with my wife in my own home
