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
