The Long Ride Home By Greg Tate
Intro
Verse 1
For Years I Did My Time
Gave All I Had To This Old Farm
A Prisoner In This Place
My Father's Big Estate Holds On To My Arm
I Dream Of City Life
I've Got To Leave So I Can Live On My Own
So Father Let Me Go
Give Me What's Mine And I'll Be Gone
And My Father Said
Chorus
The Gate Is Broad, The Road Is Wide
That Leads Through Hell To A Place Unknown
The Storm Will Come The Creek Will Rise
But You Must Find The Road That Takes You Home
It's A Long Ride Home
Instrumental
Verse 2
I Set Out On The Road
Wound Up A Thousand Miles From Home
Wild Living And The Wine
I Wasted More Than Time I Lost All I Own
I'm Starving In This Place
My Father's Workers Have Much More Than I Do
If He Would Take Me Back
I Promise I Would Start Anew ... Because I Know
Chorus
The Gate Is Broad, The Road Is Wide
That Leads Through Hell To A Place Unknown
The Storm Will Come The Creek Will Rise
But You Must Find The Road That Takes You Home
It's A Long Ride Home
Now I’m On The Road To Take Me Home
It's A Long Ride Home
Bridge
When I Reached My Father's House
He Came Running Through The Gate
Threw His Arms Around My Neck
And Said Let's Celebrate Because
Chorus
The Gate Is Broad, The Road Is Wide
That Leads Through Hell To A Place Unknown
The Storm Will Come The Creek Will Rise
But You Must Find The Road That Takes You Home
It's A Long Ride Home
But He Found The Road To Bring Him Home
It's A Long Ride Home
Outgo
