I wonder if I'll still be here Working the same job in a year Alone some nights I pour a beer And think about All the things I can't control My boss, the bills and growing old I pray to God that down the road It'll all work out But all I know right now Is I'll be up in the morning with coffee a pouring And take it on down the road I'll be swinging a hammer and climbing a ladder And hauling that heavy load And girl I'll keep on trying, keep on driving on Driving through, just as long As I can drive on home to you I wanna buy that house you always slow down for Park a new car in the drive and tell you it's yours The fact that you don't want me to makes me want to more That's what I'm working for So I'll be up in the morning with coffee a pouring And take it on down the road I'll be swinging a hammer and climbing a ladder And hauling that heavy load And girl I'll keep on trying, keep on driving on Driving through, just as long As I can drive on home to you Just to be all alone with you It's all that I want to do So, I do what I gotta do Girl what I gotta do Is be up in the morning with coffee a pouring And take it on down the road I'll be swinging a hammer and climbing a ladder And hauling that heavy load And girl I'll keep on trying, keep on driving on Driving through, just as long As I can drive on home to you Baby drive Drive on home to you
