Lyrics Chalee Tennison

Chalee Tennison

Go Back

She was waitin' tables in a diner off of Highway 41

On his way to Indiana on another midnight run

So they talked about the weather and the next thing that you know

The hours flew by like minutes and it was time he had to go

On a rainy highway half way out of town

A voice inside his heart said turn those 18 wheels around

And go back

You've got somebody waitin'

Go back

That's where you need to be

Right now

There's nothing in this world more important than that

So go back

They settled down in a little house in the spring of '92

And she quit her job at the diner with the baby almost due

Those early years weren't easy and they had bills to pay

So he said you know I hate to leave you but I'll be back by Saturday

10 miles out of Tulsa his boss came on his radio

Said if you want to see your brand new daughter you better drop that load

And go back

You've got somebody waitin'

Go back

That's where you need to be

Right now

There's nothing in this world more important than that

So go back

Everybody heard the sirens

They pulled his rig out of the snow

In a rush to see his family somehow he lost control

Though the doctors tried to save him, he slipped into the light

Then he heard the angels whisper, now is not your time

Go back

You've got somebody waitin'

Go back

That's where you need to be

Right now

There's nothing in this world more important than that

So go back

(You've got somebody waitin')

Go back

(That's where you need to be)

Go back

(Go back)

Go back
