Intro
I swear I gave up drinkin
Sometimes I have no choice
After singin hard six nights straight
A little sip sure helps my voice
Don't get me wrong, I love these songs
And I know I got it made
Sometimes my mind starts driftin'
When I'm up here on the stage
To that last half mile of dirt road
And that oak tree on the hill
To them dogs out barkin in the yard
And that tractor in the field
To them kids up on the front porch screamin'
Mama daddy's home
When I'm out here I'm just thinking 'bout the things I miss
the most
Yeah the hardest thing I have to do
Is hang up this telephone
There's so much lrft to talk about
And I've been gone so long
So put them kids on one more time
Before they go to sleep
And baby, know no matter where I go
All that I can see'
Is that last half mile of dirt road
And that oak tree on the hill
To them dogs out barkin in the yard
And that tractor in the field
To them kids up on the front porch screamin'
Mama daddy's home
When I'm out here I'm just thinking 'bout the things I miss
the most
The things I miss the most
The things I miss the most
And it's killing me I hate to leave
This family that you've given me
God only knows, I hate to go
So hold me close and let me let you know
About the tings I miss the most
Solo
People always ask me
After every show
Of all the places that you've ever been
What's your favorite place to go
To that last half mile of dirt road
And that oak tree on the hill
To them dogs out barkin in the yard
And that tractor in the field
To them kids up on the front porch screamin'
Mama daddy's home
When I'm out here I'm just thinking 'bout the things I miss
the most
While I'm out here, I'm just thinking about the things I
miss the most
