Long Way to Go Songtext

von Corey Smith

Graduated high school class of '96
Nameless face in the middle of a small-town click
No yellow tassle to adorn my gown
Barely made my pass but mama sure was proud

Cuz I had a long long way to go
A long long way to go
The whole world in front of me and time moving so slow
You know I had a long long way to go

Fell off track somewhere along the way
Chained all my dreams to a mirror and a razor blade
Mama said guess its just a part of growing up
Spent my last 5 years trying to straighten up

But I've got a long long way to go
A long long way to go
Still got my demons their knocking at my door
You know I've got a long long way to go
A long way to go

Mama died 3 years ago just yesterday
And I placed a rose beneath that tree where she lays
Then I said a prayer there in her memory
And in some sad strange way it reminded me

That I've got a long long way to go
A long long way to go
To live is to struggle but to struggle is to grow
You know I've got a long long way to go
A long long way to go
I've got a long long way to go
