austin merrill - one more mile lyrics
it’s just an old slab of concrete
and a bunch of sticks and stones
she wrote the family name on the mailbox
but it never felt like home
and on her eighteenth birthday
she kissed mom and dad goodbye
and headed for the county line, saying:
one more mile till freedom
leave my worries in the rearview
where i’m going i won’t need ’em
they’ll fade away like they used to do
feel like i’ve been stuck here so long
just waiting on life to get through
praying for my time to come
one more mile till freedom
it’s like a big slab of concrete
all draped in monochrome
she gave a hard drive to the city life
but it never felt like home
till she fell for some blue eyes
looked lonely, same as hers
he bought a ring and called the church, saying:
one more mile till freedom
leave my worries in the rearview
where i’m going i won’t need ’em
they’ll fade away like they used to do
feel like i’ve been stuck here so long
just waiting on life to get through
praying for my time to come
one more mile till freedom
her heart crumbled like concrete
when the nurse called the family
she said, “your momma’s time is a+running short
and you’d all better come and see.”
as she knelt by the bedside
wanting just a few more years
momma said “child, dry your tears, i’ve got
one more mile till freedom
leave my worries in the rearview
where i’m going i won’t need ’em
they’ll fade away like they used to do
feel like i’ve been stuck here so long
just waiting on life to get through
praying for my time to come
one more mile till freedom
one more mile to freedom
leave our worries in the rearview
where we’re going we won’t need ’em
they’ll fade away like they used to do
feel like i’ve been stuck here so long
just waiting on life to get through
praying for my time to come
one more mile till freedom
one more mile till freedom
