Tony Martin - My Way Back lyrics

[Verse 1] Momma put a Bible in my glovebox And a hot homemade apple pie on the pa**enger seat She said you'll always be my baby And she planted a kiss and a couple of tears on my cheek Dad slipped me some travelin' cash Threw a map with a highlighted route on the dash And I realized, as I looked back, that [Chorus] They weren't just sayin' goodbye They weren't just seein' me off They were just makin' sure that I Don't forget where I'm from Go out there and do your family proud son Momma loved and Daddy worked And lived their lives just to make sure I know My way back home [Verse 2] I can still smell Momma's kitchen And feel every single prayer she says for me I can point these wheels towards that sunset Without a fear, without a doubt, Daddy says, "Go for that dream" I left behind a pie-crumb trail Just in case I get lost, fall flat, or fail And if the wind should leave my sail [Chorus] They weren't just sayin' goodbye They weren't just seein' me off They were just makin' sure that I Don't forget where I'm from Go out there and do your family proud son Momma loved and Daddy worked And lived their lives just to make sure I know My way back home [Bridge] To that door that's always open And that light that's always on To the love that's always waiting After bein' gone too long [Chorus] They weren't just sayin' goodbye They weren't just seein' me off They were just makin' sure that I Don't forget where I'm from Go out there and do your family proud son Momma loved and Daddy worked And lived their lives just to make sure I know I always know I always know my way back home [Outro] My way back home My way back home
