A Long Way From Home: A Trucker's Lament



A long way from home with many miles to go,
Look at the weather. The forecast is for snow.
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?

A long way from home, but my love's waiting there,
Love with true passion is way beyond compare.
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?

A long way from home, truck wheels are spinning now.
Should I stop and wait, or carry on somehow?
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?

A long way from home, there are so many miles.
The snow is increasing, drifting in huge piles.
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?

A long way from home, the highway is now blocked.
I can not get through, by Mother Nature mocked.
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?

A long way from home, will get there when I can.
Whenever it's possible for God and man.
A long way from home,
A long way from home,
Why did I ever
Decide I should roam?


A trucker is trying to get home, but runs into a snow storm on the way.
