"Show Me The Way Back Home" lyrics - KENNY WAYNE SHEPHERD

I met a rag doll, with lovely eyes
Lookin so lost, and cast aside
Beggin spare change, beneath the shadows of a sunset street light

I dug down deep, into my pocket
A couple dollars, was all that I had.
She reached out like, it was treasure.
She looked so far away, when she said...

She said,
Show me the way back home
'Cause I've been out there runnin
For way too long
And all that I've learned
And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.
There's always another one, I need someone
To show me the way back home.

So many lost souls, along the line
It wasn't so long, that soul was mine.
Feeling forsaken, down on my knees
Needing some mercy, asking please

Show me the way back home
'Cause I've been out there runnin
For way too long
And all that I've learned
And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.
There's always another one, I need someone
To show me the way back home.

Oh yeah...

And all that I've learned
And just when you think, you've chased down every last mile.
There's always another one, I need someone
Yeah, yeah, I need someone
To show me the way back home.

So many lost souls, along the line
It wasn't so long, that soul was mine.
