steve earle - home to houston lyrics
when i pulled out of basra they all wished me luck
just like they always did before
with a bulletproof screen on the hood of my truck
and a bradley on my back door
and i wound her up and shifted her down
and i offered this prayer to my lord
i said “god get me back home to houston alive
and i won’t drive a truck anymoreâ€
early in the mornin’ and i’m rollin’ fast
haulin’ nine thousand gallons of high test gas
sergeant on the radio hollerin’ at me
look out up ahead here come a r.p.g.
if i ever get home to houston alive
then i won’t drive a truck anymore
i’ve driven the big rigs for all of my life
and my radio handle’s “trainâ€
down steep mountain roads on the darkest of nights
i had ice water in my veins
and i come over here ‘cause i just didn’t care
now i’m older and wiser by far
if i ever get home to houston alive
then i won’t drive a truck anymore
great god a’mighty what was wrong with me
i know the money’s good but buddy can’t you see
you can’t take it with you and that ain’t no lie
i don’t wanna let ‘em get me i’m too young to die
if i ever get home to houston alive
then i won’t drive a truck anymore
