Missing Missouri
I love my life, love my husband
Without those kid's, man, I ain't nothin'
I love my fans, love my band
Love my little Tennessee piece of land
Sometimes my life can get so hectic
Out of the blue when I least expect it
Somewhere between the hubbub and the drama
I get to thinkin' 'bout mama and...
[Chorus]
I'm caught up in missing Missouri
'Cause I wanna be with my family
Instead of stuck out on this road I'm on
Every time my bus wheels hit the boot hill
There's no limelight, and I'm alright
'Cause I'm almost home
Where they love me, where they know me
Where they show me back in Missouri
The road just ain't no place for whiners
It's motels, truck stops, all-night diners
Hoping that your song'll sell
And having to smile when it ain't doin' well
So when everything just gets too much
And I feel like I'm givin' up
I close my eyes and say a little prayer
And it's like I'm there and...
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Late summer nights, sneakin' out the window
Me and the girls driving down the back roads
Tobacco fields and bumblebees
And the Cardinals playing on TV
[Chorus]
