Lyrics

Lonoke

This road goes way to close to Lonoke
Just a quick stop, another highway town
There you were, sitting on the counter
swinging those legs so brown
eyes of blue looking out the window
watching what comes around

Chorus:
I don?t want to stop in Lonoke
it ain?t safe and it ain?t never gonna be
Seems I?m always passing through Lonoke
when I?m too long on the road
and my tank?s on empty
You know that I?m weak and you don?t care
You know I melt under your stare
but it ain?t love burning in your eyes
Gotta get past Lonoke this time

There?s somebody trusting me in Little Rock
It wouldn?t take much to tear it all to the ground
There you are, out by the gas pumps
watching me slow down
O Lord help me Jesus
get me straight on past this town, ?cause
(repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
It?s come down to one turn of the wheel,
a turn of the wheel
(repeat Chorus)
