Almost There

(album: Heart Of Stone - 2008)

A busted bottle on the railroad tracks
Walking and talking to that monkey on my back
Catch that monkey try to throw him down
But the monkey think it's funny just riding around

Down the road going nowhere
Down the road almost there

Ain't nobody living at the Clinch Hotel
Devil done been there took all my friends to Hell
Hadn't been in the jail house he woulda got me
Seen a black flag flying from a live oak tree

Down the road going nowhere
Down the road almost there

Seen my mama last night she was sitting by my bed
Worried 'bout you son was the only thing she said
Ten years now mama been gone
She's still trying to teach me what's right and what's wrong

Down the road going nowhere
Down the road almost there
Down the road going nowhere
Down the road almost there
