What i need to do

I keep tellin' myself this is the right thing to do I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams that just weren't comin' true And this old highway seems to understand Leadin' me on to somewhere that no one knows my name I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up I'm doin' all that I can to get my mind off us What I need to do is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown And run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on, and on, and on Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep Now the sun's goin' down on my broken heart Lord, I gotta get back before I get too far What I need to do is turn this car around Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown And run to her, take her in my arms Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard But I drive on Yes I drive on, and on, and on Knowin' what I need to do Girl, I'm comin' home to you Knowin' what I need to do Girl I'm comin' home to you I'm comin' home to you Knowin' what I need to do
