Half Way Home

John Norum


It was a lonely night
Air was restless
More electric feelin' in my soul
Tryin' to shake the burnin'
I was losin' the flight
The hangin' on 9th St. Callin'
The gang is losin' control
Packed a little money
Started the bike
Headed away from the west side
If only for one night
Maybe the Lord will try to save me
May be time to listen
Got me goin' crazy but I'm leavin', leavin'
I'm gonna shake this ground I'm on
Nothin's gonna break
This road I've led upon
Can't stop this trip I'm on
I'm half way home
Half way gone

I'm tired and twisted
Such a long ride
Heard the boys are busted
Glad to be alive
Another day of ridin'
Hope I'll see my girl
Hope she isn't under
In someone else's world
Headed for trouble
And I'm leavin' it
Behind they're seeing double
Ahead I'll win the race
Dealer is a loser
Stealin' is a shame
Bullets for the innocent
And I'm feelin' the pain
I'm gonna shake this ground I'm on
Nothin's gonna break
This road I've led upon
Can't stop this trip I'm on
I'm half way home
Half way gone
I'm gonna shake this ground I'm on
Nothin's gonna break
This road I've led upon
Can't stop this trip I'm on
I'm half way home
Half way gone
I'm half way home
Half way gone
Half way home
Half way gone
Half way home
Half way gone
