Womack Lee Ann - A Little Past Little Rock lyrics

rate me

I had to leave my life in Dallas<br />

That town will always be you<br />

In every crowd, on every corner<br />

In every face I'd see you<br />

So with nothin' more than a tank of gas<br />

I drove away without lookin' back<br />

And I guess that's how I got where I am<br />

Goin' anywhere as fast as I can<br />

(chorus)<br />

I'm a little past Little Rock<br />

Further down the line<br />

Too soon to know what's up ahead<br />

Too late to change my mind<br />

I gotta keep my heart out of this<br />

And both hands on the wheel<br />

I'm learnin' more with every mile<br />

Just how leavin' feels<br />

It's a lonely stretch of blacktop<br />

Out into the blue<br />

I don't know where I'll go or what I'll do<br />

I'm a little past Little Rock<br />

But a long way from over you<br />

These headlights on the highway<br />

Disappear into the dark<br />

And if I could have it my way<br />

I'd go back to where you are<br />

Oh, but I can't turn this thing around<br />

And nothin' short of breakin' down<br />

Is gonna get me off this road I'm on<br />

Oh, and I'm still a far cry from gone<br />

(repeat chorus)<br />

I'm a little past Little Rock<br />

But a long way from over you
