[Verse 1] Well, the fever hit me early on When I was still a kid I was born to chase the black tops So that's just what I did The first time I strung a guitar And sang a sad old country song I knew everywhere I travelled Would be a long way home [Verse 2] I played honkey tonk for dive bars And packed out parking lots Made news, singing blues Giving everything I've got Well, it sure as hell ain't easy Traveling down this road alone Knowing everywhere I go Is a long way from home [Chorus] Sometimes it may be tough But I wouldn't change a thing I know I'll be content As long as I can play and sing There's one thing for sure I'll always be moving on And everywhere I go Is a long way from home [Verse 3] I got a girl in Nashville That keeps me pushing through She's always got my back And believes in what I do And I'll always hurry back Every time that I am gone Cause everywhere I go Is a long way from home [Chorus] Sometimes it may be tough But I wouldn't change a thing I know I'll be content As long as I can play and sing There's one thing for sure I'll always be moving on And everywhere I go Is a long way from home [Chorus] Sometimes it may be tough But I wouldn't change a thing I know I'll be content As long as I can play and sing There's one thing for sure I'll always be moving on And everywhere I go Is a long way from home Yeah, everywhere I go Is a long way from home
