Long Old Dusty Road

Jerry Jeff Walker
 Seemed like only yesterday, we first drove up that road
 Looking back I see it's more like twenty odd years ago
 We were young and so in love, with a long long row to hoe
 We came and went and our lives were spent up a long old dusty road
 When we first got married, we searched to find a home
 We found one at the end of a long old dusty road
 We fixed it up with love and watched our children grow
 The years flew by and we lived our lives up a long old dusty road
 When our children came we added one room at the start
 But what was really added on was more room in our hearts
 Then our house went from a thing we used to a happy home
 A place that shared a common face up a long old dusty road
 Yeah the home is where you dream your dreams,
 It's where your children grow
 It's where you take your meals, where you say your prayers
 And the first home that you ever own is where all those memories start
 And it always holds a special place, deep inside your heart
 Then came we day we faced the facts our kids had grown
 Seemed our little family had just outgrown our home
 I didn't believe we'd leave the hilltop we loved so
 But there comes a time when you say good-bye to the long old dusty road
 'Cause a home is where you dreamed your dreams,
 It's where all your children grow
 It's where you took your meals,
 Where you said your prayers
 And the first home that you ever own
 That's where all those memories start
 And it always holds a special place,
 Deep inside your heart
 Seems like only yesterday, we first drove up that road
 Looking back I see it's more like twenty odd years ago
 We were young and so in love, with a long, long row to hoe
 We came and went and our lives were spent up a long old dusty road
 We came and went and our lives were spent up a long old dusty road
