Lyrics Kenny Chesney

Kenny Chesney

What I Need to Do

I keep tellin' myself this is the right thing to do

I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams that just weren't comin' true

And this old highway seems to understand

Leadin' me on to somewhere that no one knows my name

I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up

I'm doin' all that I can to get my mind off us

What I need to do is turn this car around

Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown

And run to her, take her in my arms

Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard

But I drive on, and on, and on

Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue

There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do

Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee

I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep

Now the sun's goin' down on my broken heart

Lord, I gotta get back before I get too far

What I need to do is turn this car around

Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown

And run to her, take her in my arms

Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard

But I drive on

Yes I drive on, and on, and on

Knowin' what I need to do

Girl, I'm comin' home to you

Knowin' what I need to do

Girl I'm comin' home to you

I'm comin' home to you

Knowin' what I need to do
