Lyrics Alan Jackson

Alan Jackson

Long Way to Go

Well I drove down to the ocean

Left my heartache way behind

But the rain won't leave and the pain won't ease

And the sun don't wanna shine

So I ordered me up a killer

Found a view out across the sea

I sat down in the sand

A drink in my hand

And in the glass looking back at me

I got a bug in my margarita

Seems bad luck won't leave me alone

I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away

And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

Well I met an old boy from Georgia

Yeah, his woman done knocked him down

I asked him how's he doing

He stared at me confused

And said, "Hey, ain't you looked around?"

He said the rain won't leave

And the pain won't ease

And the sun don't wanna shine

And there's something in the bottom of this drink I just got

And it don't look like a worm to me

I got a bug in my margarita

Seems bad luck won't leave me alone

I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away

And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

So we put our drinks together

And toasted rainy weather

And the women that had done us wrong

Then we threw back margaritas

The bug just made it sweeter

And we both sang a happy song

I got a bug in my margarita

Seems bad luck won't leave me alone

I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away

And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita

Seems bad luck won't leave me alone

I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away

And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita

Seems bad luck won't leave me alone

I got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away

And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a long, long way to go
