The Music Drives Me Home

Got a dented old truck

and a worn-out seat

Dust on my boots

from the county road heat

But one turn of a song

and I’m back where I’m whole

Like a screen door swing

to the room of my soul

It don’t ask why

it just knows my name

Hits that quiet place

and it lights the flame

The music drives me home

(yeah, the music drives me home)

Straight to the calm in my bones

(to the calm in my bones)

Old or new, it finds the door

and leaves me better than before

The music drives me home

(yeah, the music drives me home)

From a two-lane town

to a Friday fair

From a front porch laugh

to a backseat prayer

It can break me open

then put me back right

Like a lantern glow

in a Sunday night

It don’t need gold

or a grand parade

Just a simple chord

and the storm will fade

The music drives me home

(yeah, the music drives me home)

Straight to the calm in my bones

(to the calm in my bones)

Old or new, it finds the door

and leaves me better than before

The music drives me home

(yeah, the musoc drives me home)

When the world runs rough

and my mind runs dry

It rolls the clouds back

in my heart and sky

One honest tune

and I’m set free

Like somebody saved

a place for me

The music drives me home

(yeah, the music drives me home)

Straight to the calm in my bones

(to the calm in my bones)

Old or new, it finds the door

and leaves me better than before

The music drives me home

(yeah, the music drives me home)
