There's a Hitchhiker Standing On the Side of the Road Off of Exit 104 And a Forgotten Billboard For a All Night Diner That Ain't Even There No More Three Deserted Farms Just Like Monuments Standing Cold and Still While a Hawk and a Lonely State Trooped Stand Guard Out On Lookout Hill Chorus: I'm Just Following the Road Home On a Trail of Memories Just a Battle Weary Native Son Is There Still a Home For Me When You See Me Coming Don't You Turn Away 'cause This Hometown Boy Needs a Place to Stay And a Little Understanding On the Road Home The Road Home? There's Still Mud On My Boots From Across the Sea Ain't Gonna Kick It Off Cause It Makes Me Remember What I Need to Forget When I'm Feeling Lonesome and Lost There's a River of Scars and It's Running Deep Right Down to My Very Soul And This Battle Rages Every Step of the Way While I Try Not to Let It Show (Repeat Chorus)
