Leave It Out Here

Verse
You wonder why I sit out in that drive
Truck turned off, just starin’ at the night
Ain’t that I don’t wanna come inside
I’m just leavin’ work behind

Chorus
Gotta shake the dust off this old mind
Leave them hard days out in the pines
Before I walk through that front door
I don’t wanna bring you any more
Of the weight I carry all day through
I sit a spell, so I’m good for you

Verse
Steerin’ wheel and silence in my hands
Tryna be the man I know I am
You deserve the best of me, it’s true
Not the mess that job can do

Chorus
Gotta shake the dust off this old mind
Leave them hard days out in the pines
Before I walk through that front door
I don’t wanna bring you any more
Of the weight I carry all day through
I sit a spell, so I’m good for you

Outro
So if I’m late comin’ in sometimes
Just know I’m leavin’ it all behind
