[00:00.00]Long Lonely Road - Valerie June
[00:00.26]Pile in the church pew rows
[00:04.04]Gran made the best yeast rolls
[00:08.06]Gospel of stories told
[00:11.34]'Bout the one way to save your soul
[00:15.54]Drag out the old guitar
[00:19.37]Gas up that old ford car
[00:23.22]We're gonna hit the dusty road
[00:26.95]4 wheels can barely load
[00:30.05]It's been a long
[00:33.12]It's been a long
[00:34.19]Long long long long long lonely road
[00:42.15]Pops made his work in dust
[00:45.69]But his hard working hands fed us
[00:49.68]Sun up 'til sun sank down
[00:53.42]His body worked to the ground
[00:57.30]Folks thought we had it made
[01:00.78]'Cause we always kept a face
[01:04.94]Meanwhile there's bills to pay
[01:08.12]And the stack growing every day
[01:11.64]It's been a long
[01:14.69]Been a long long
[01:16.55]Been a long long long long lonely road
[01:25.31]My my my
[01:26.56]It's been a long long long
[01:29.53]Been a long long
[01:31.46]Been a long long long long lonely road
[02:11.42]Soon as I turned 18
[02:14.96]I packed up the grass is green
[02:18.63]New york or Tennessee
[02:22.08]Where I am is where I'll be
[02:25.45]God tell me about your plans
[02:29.42]And I'll find a place to land
[02:33.53]Surely there'd be a way
[02:36.95]To move towards a brighter day
[02:40.17]It's been a long
[02:42.91]It's been a long long
[02:44.97]Been a long long long long lonely road
[02:53.60]My my my
[02:54.72]It's been a long been a long long
[02:59.59]Been a long long long long lonely road
[03:08.29]My my my
[03:09.40]It's been a long been a long long
[03:13.86]Long long long long long long lonely road
[03:24.65]One person's path unpaid
[03:28.25]Went towards the path that saved
[03:32.35]These are the songs you sing
[03:35.69]In the search for the grass that's green
[03:39.32]It's been a long lonely road
