I Didn't Come This Far (Just To Walk Away) Paroles

And I didn't come this far just to walk away

I slung a rod just east of Memphis
And that heap of a truck shut down
So for nine cold hours I thumbed my way
Straight to the guitar town
And the last twelve miles to your mama's house
I hiked through the pouring rain
And I didn't come this far just to walk away

I could have turned around a thousand times
And went back to where I'm from
But I'd go an extra million miles
If I could save what's left of us
Oh, it was a burning love that drove me here
And girl I hope and pray
That I didn't come this far just to walk away

I know that this front door ain't the only thing
That stands between you and me 'Cause I didn't come this far just to walk away

Oh, I could have turned around a thousand times
And went back to where I'm from
But I'd go an extra million miles
If I could save what's left of us
Oh, it was a burning love that drove me here
And girl I hope and pray
That I didn't come this far just to walk away

Oh, I didn't come this far just to walk away
