She Makes the Coming Home (Worth the Being Gone) Songtext
von Shenandoah

Flashing headlights, rainy midnights
Highballing ′round Baltimore
Rear view mirror, I'm jamming gears
I can almost see her waiting at the door

So I′m hugging that line with my pedal
Against the floor

And it's three more days, two lonely nights
I'll be back holding my baby tight
Come on, roll, wheels roll, diesel, pour it on
She makes the coming home worth the being gone
Coming home worth the being gone


High school football, six foot too tall
Homecoming queen, love at first sight
Now you′re looking at a man who never really planned to
Settle down so soon, but hey, that′s alright

'Cause I got a lotta love and a job
That I kinda like

And it′s three more days, two lonely nights
I'll be back holding my baby tight
Come on, roll, wheels roll, diesel, pour it on
She makes the coming home worth the being gone
The coming home worth the being gone

Come on, roll, wheels roll, diesel, pour it on
She makes the coming home worth the being gone
The coming home worth the being gone

Flashing headlight, rainy midnight
Three more days, I′ll be home
Gonna be holding my baby tight
Yeah, yeah
