It's a long stretch of highway
From Tulsa to Tennessee
You know I had to do it my way
It may've got the best of me
Sometimes at midnight
I hear a voice
It echoes in my head
And says that I still have a choice
(Chorus)
I could get right
Get baptized
Tomorrow I could prob'ly have a pretty good life
But tonight I
Don't think I'll
Slow these horses down
There's a full moon
Hear the wolf howl
And one more drink'll put me on the ground
But tonight I've gone too far to turn around
Should have listened to my mama
Lord knows, that woman tried
Yeah, she saw this road a-comin'
And her fears were justified
I can't hide
I can't run
I can still see the smoke from the barrel of the gun
What's gone is gone
And what's done is done
(Repeat chorus)
Woooooah, is there a Heaven or a Hell?
Woooooah, only time will tell
There's a full moon
Hear the wolf howl
And one more drink'll put me on the ground
But tonight I've gone too far
Tonight I've gone too far
Tonight I've gone too far to turn around
