Thirty Years and a Thousand Miles Away

[Verse 1]
Still hear my mama callin'
It's gettin' late, night is fallin'
Tomorrow's comin', it's almost yesterday
Thirty years and a thousand miles away

[Verse 2]
I was raised by a hand that was strong and steady
A soldier, a teacher, husband, a daddy
There's so many things I wish I could go back and say
Thirty years and a thousand miles away

[Chorus]
They say that you can't go back home
But I know a road and I'm already gone
Take a ride in my mind down that go back in time highway
Thirty years and a thousand miles away

[Verse 3]
My childhood days still fill up my senses
And it takes me back to barbed wire fences
And the smell of the big old field full of fresh-cut hay
Thirty years and a thousand miles away

[Chorus]
They say that you can't go back home
But I know a road and I'm already gone
Take a ride in my mind down that go back in time highway
Thirty years and a thousand miles away

[Verse 4]
Still hear my mama callin'
It's gettin' late, night is fallin'
Tomorrow's comin', it's almost yesterday
Thirty years and a thousand miles away
Thirty years and a thousand miles away
