Lyrics Turnpike Troubadours

Turnpike Troubadours

Solid Ground

It's been pouring down rain on my old windshield, would seem like three whole days

And I've been thinking about a brand new life, 'cause this one sure don't pay

Spending too much time on the telephone, just looking' for a place to play

And I'm bound to run on a pieces like home, here on this highway

But my mind has gone without me

To where I lay my burdens down

And I'll be standing on a rock

On the banks of the glover river

Closest thing I've known to solid ground

Been seeing your face at different types of places in the rearview of my mind

And sights 20-20 but I can't count how many times that I've gone blind

Leaves me feeling kind a heavy like all my levy's just abound to break

And it's damn poor weather, but I'm holding together, lord there's too much at stake

But my mind has gone without me

To where I lay my burdens down

And I'll be standing on a rock

On the banks of the glover river

Closest thing I've known to solid ground

And I'll be southbound, and headed down, tomorrow at first light

Now I'll be dreaming at when I'm leaving they can kiss my ass goodbye

Leaves me feeling kind a heavy like all my levy's just abound to break

And it's damn poor weather, but I'm holding together, lord there's too much at stake

But my mind has gone without me

To where I lay my burdens down

And I'll be standing on a rock

On the banks of the glover river

Closest thing I've known to solid ground
